[hometext] =>
[bodytext] => A Narcisst Nation? Well, it looks that way Though it's just half true For I have met some beauties More than 50% of you A Narcisst Nation? Hey, that’s not even a word! A total generalisation Is truly just absurd I know the ones I’ve met Have been the greatest people and yet When a nation hugs itself And steals a whole world’s wealth? That’s what I call a Narcisst Nation That takes much more than it’s own true ration The 50%+ who are truly bright Have a feel For what is right They care enough to really think Not just consume But make the link Between what is American need And what is simply American greed They see the environment is not eternal That endless consuming brings a scene infernal They are truly the best I have known Beautiful Americans - kind and warm They have a depth deep in their soul And a caring nature with selfless goal To really look and see what’s there To try each day to do what’s fair Not simply a native of a greedy land But a global vision to understand And the other half of this coin? The loud mouths with closed mind The ones who feel not think Who’d rather stay sure and blind? Well, what can we say? We hear from them day on day Their stupid selfish shout: “Our way, our way, our way!” Petty nationalists, bigots and ugly souls Too stupid to know they’re doomed Eat up the resource of a thousand years Our planet by them consumed These narcissts are truly selfish souls Thinking only Americans count Trapped in narrow minds so bitter and cold The casualties abroad will mount So, it’s up to the spirits who truly care To show America’s truly great side To build a society that shines so bright They are American. And with pride!

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. ©
