Ms. Liberty Can We Talk?

Two Faced America Part 1

By StelaniePublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Liberty I need to talk to you.

Liberty I need some answers

because our so called oceans of liberty turning into a sewer of lies

Only making the rich and the kkk thankful.

How do you feel about white wash?

You know your original image was of color.

Image from France showed another depiction.

The fiction in your eyes of equality

lies down there with the mouth of false tranquility

Ms. Liberty or Mrs. I'm sorry I don't know.

I think you used to be married to my friend freedom

You know he changed and rearranged

Just like your definition of what an American is.

If you divorced him I can't

I can’t blame you

But in so many ways I can’t trust the both of you.

Is that hair relaxed, pressed or extensions?

Do you only prefer white chocolate?

Are you turning green because you’re filled with envy or because

Our country is rotting to the core?

I miss the America I was lied about.
