[bodytext] => An exercise in ugliness From beginning to end Leaves America now Without a friend A few dumb clucks Were found in charge America attacked The responsibility large Totally inadequate They panicked and flew Into the arms of hawks The damage just grew Running in the wrong direction They justified deceit And laid the groundwork For their own defeat A sorrier crew Would be hard to find Stupid, misguided And terminally blind The deaths of thousands Lie on their hands These fools postured Making demands They lost the goodwill All of us had felt Toward America As our hearts did melt But these sorry men In just one year Lost all our support And created fear Instead of co-operation We were willing to give They spread only hatred Making us grieve For a just America We thought might grow But these foolish men Simply could not know What in the end They would throw away Losing all chance Of a brighter day They indulged in hatred Such a message to send And now have left America Without a friend [comments] => 1 [counter] => 181 [topic] => 41 [informant] => steeleyes [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => political )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
