Poem.

You were mistaken about America

What she was meant to be

And the true meaning of what it is to be free

Using life and liberty to choose for oneself

The imagined morality or immorality one desires to choose

As long as it’s kept to oneself in ways that other lives are not abused

By your imagined acts of morality, immorality, or subjective views

For that’s what it really means to be free

A multicultural entity only  America can be

And the lives lost for this freedom was meant

To sustain America’s most precious and fundamental intent

That all Americans have one moral value in common

The one moral thing each one  admittedly wants

And as an American- each one can summon

The one theme embraced by them all

One theme which has the world enthralled

One theme which sets the world on fire

One theme which inspires the lowest and highest

One theme which attracts the eagle’s eye

One theme by which all our flags fly

To be able to choose for oneself

The imagined morality or immorality one desires to choose

As long as its kept to oneself

In ways where no other lives are abused

By your acts of imagined morality or immorality or other subjective views

Upon which you insist

Towards life, liberty, and the pursuit of each unique happiness
