Sticks and Stones...

Breaking Bones...


2000 and fourteen
The year of Obamacare:
Do we care
Do we not
Because we are forced 
to make a decision?
About our health
our aging bodies
bedridden diseases
and broken bones?
What happened
to red, white, and blue?
The land of the free
and home of the brave?
Are we even free anymore?
Do we have freedom of speech?
Freedom of press?
Freedom of religion?
Are we dwindling into nothingness?  
Obscure
Obscene
Observable by all
as not USA?

I decided to pen this peom in honor of the ambivalence that this new healthcare law is bringing out in the people of the United States...
