 Contemporary poetry by Dan Donlan

ONCE CONSIDERED GOD'S COUNTRY

By Dan Donlan, www.PoetryPoem.com/dandy1    Unlock all Features - Upgrade to Poetry Prime

Invaded by Motherless
 Fatherless children
Vultures surrounding my city
The gates left open to vermin
breeding ground of illegal
invaders poverty and hopelessness
Nor can I blame them
For wanting a new start
In a world that has left them homeless
Lacking in homeland leadership
Left responding to drug culture
and endless wars for greed
Bring on peace end suffering
Wars over control of thought
Release our troupes to coming home
and ridding this country of ours
of the invading Zombies of dread
From the smoke of their own undoing
Let no one say dope should be legal
Be it alcohol or filling the skies
No longer blue hue Left in yellowed smoke
For every medical need to die on the road
of the insanity of dying from false illusions
Mt Rainier shines over another cop killing
And another wandering doper is dead
Lawlessness the streets are turning red?
