America Show

This guy won again,
about to be dismissed
for his personal
ritual, but he did it real fast.
That confederate flag
in his window I say,
and am reminded
doesn't mean a thing
but they never went
inside did they?
This is America.
There's a strange
thing that happens
as whole nations
go belly up and land
in the quagmire,
as they turn into
the beggars that
they once hated,
the ones cheated,
as they are overturned
and replaced.
The mirror stops
bringing back the news.
