A poem expressing the devastaion that has faced our nation time and again and the hope to build a beautiful unity.

 

Devastation
Multiplied by the nation
Is the product of frustration
            This is the equation!

Our profound declaration:
“United we are one nation”
Divided by segregation
Is only the creation
Of alienation

A paralyzed nation
Engulfed by devastation
In desperation and aggravation
We act in retaliation
            This is the equation!

Our world population
Engulfed in history’s replication:
“The atomic bomb in Vietnam
Veteran’s flashback of the Pearl Harbor attack”
Our nation
In complete saturation
Of a lack of education
            This is the equation!

To multiply the equation
By hope and inspiration
A solid foundation
The ideal calculation

A computation
With a deviation
From discrimination
An illustration of harmonization
And the application of love and education
The beginning of beautification
One true nation . . .

             This is the equation!
