For love of country

Stand up
against the silence of words
if you work toward something,
hard work,
they will say you stole it.
Do not let them censor things,
do not let them yell in our faces,
do not believe the lies they write,
question what you have heard.
Try try to not let terror throw your mind,
or physically abused, for they will call you
a terrorist. The corporate world will try to
color you as such, when all you stand for is
equality and rights.
Will it be criminal to say "Constitution"
any more?
We must aspire to be more like Mandela,
informed and loving.
Our elders know life on levels
that the young do not yet understand.
Listen to them,
if you have children, you might know
that we must stand for freedom
forever in our land.
