America?

What are we? How have we come to this? Growing up in this country I believed with all of my heart that this place was the grandest country I could ever know. Now through the years a terrible truth has revealed itself to me little by little and piece by piece about this America I was born into. This is not a true land of opportunity. This is not a country formed for the people by the people. This nation is solely and totally based upon the amount of shit we have in our driveways and in our bank accounts. The Bible states that the love of money is the root of all evil and with this I peer upon this American landscape with shame and disgust. I think of all the Americans who at this very moment are suffering and dying right under the noses of the citizens who should be helping them out. We fight unholy wars and waste our youth and promise by delivering them into the hands of the devil. We shall pay for what we have become. Our deeds and careless attitudes will not go unpunished. The rich shall be forced to their knees in the presence of the Lord so that they shall see what their money and power has afforded them. Wealth, power, and fame have not gotten us where we are today, they have prevented us from being where we need to be. We need to open our eyes soon or the future will be filled with more tears and agony than the world has ever known at one time.
