The Love For Our Country

The jokes we hear now

Are somewhat lame

And they would also say this for

The year 2004

But this world critiques on its own

Because of its wonderful landscape…

…that information was postponed

But America my dear

How “fruit-less” can you be

You say good night to the rooster

And good morning to me

The owl perched high above it all

And if I do have one

My lazy eye doth fall

And I see this land of plenty

Plenty of doltishness…or stupidity

Dull and blank

But yet so gruesome

We say we love you

But no one will ever know

How “wonderful” America is

What it really has to show

Yes, we do

We do love you

But sometimes you know

And sometimes you don’t
