Un Apologia del Mundo
Aug 25, 2017 · 1 min read
We got carried away.
It doesn’t mean
we’re bad people
that we’ve all become Nazis.
We continue to be
a big hearted people,
generous, welcoming, kind.
We got swept away in a story.
You understand.
We got scared.
Hoodwinked too,
into believing there was not enough,
and we were powerless.
We forgot about
our “purple mountains majesty,
and amber waves of grain.”
You understand.
Our power lies in remembering
that we “crown our good
with brother hood
from sea to shining sea.”
