I cry for

I cry for America

I cry for America, were the dollar as replaced compassion

I cry for America, were selfishness as replaced selflessness

I cry for America, where corporate as become corrupt

I cry for America, where slander as replaces Truth

I cry for America, where two parties have become one

I cry for America, where the good of the one as replaced the good of the many

I cry for America, where Shareholder as replaced share

I cry for America, where loyalty to party as replaced Loyal to the Nation

I cry for America, where worth as become worthless

I cry for America, were test has replaced education

I cry for America, where lobby and lobbyist as replaced home and hearth

I cry for America……..
