HOME OF THE BRAVE

N/A

By Tshura YPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

I pledge allegiance to the flag...the what..put your right hand over your heart that’s where it all started, Already I was initiated in this fake, overpowering,non-realistic place....and justice for all..YEAH RIGHT!!! Why did I have to go through that whole speech that was thrown, forced and pushed upon me, no justice for all when Black and Brown brothas and sistas make up the nation's prisons and jail walls, unemployment, poverty, basic needs is scarce and far beyond the human capacity, What can this flag do for me, when throughout history it has been shown and written I'm not of good company

I will take this flag and shove it where it belongs straight up the dirty politicians and shady government's……….

About the Creator

Tshura Y

My passion and love for reading and writing started when I was a child, growing up very unorthodox has lead me into finding a way to escape the harsh realities around me, I write from the heart and life experiences I hope you enjoy!
