Positives of America
Summary
I wanted to make this poem positive
I wanted to talk about my “proud” country
I wanted to talk about all the things I see
In my “proud” country
Like how black men make up 35% of prison inmates
Or how when I type beautiful women in Google’s search bar
You don’t see a black woman until two pages down
But hey, it’s not that bad
I mean we have a president with no political experience
Running one the world biggest countries
Who has a history of sexually assaulting women
But don’t worry he’s good to us right?
He wants to build a wall
That citizens are going to have to pay for
And if it’s through our taxes it’ll take
At least four generations to pay it off
But don’t worry
I’m sure he’s considered that most immigrants
Don’t come here by the border
But in fact planes, but hey!
Maybe some planes can’t fly over walls
I means mexicans are crossing over onto our territory
Right?
It’s not like California, Arizona, Texas, and other South-Western states
Use to be apart of Mexico
It’s not like America took that territory and claimed it as its own
But hey now, we aren’t that bad
Our citizens on average work 40 hours a week
Such hard workers they are
That’s crazy considering that
Germany has the world’s best economy
And they work an average of 35 hours and week
Not to mention the average annual
Wages are $5,000 dollars more than ours
And 1 in 4 Germans only work part time
Don’t worry though we can fix this
Maybe our current students/future workers can change this
That may be bit hard though
I mean with all the current shootings
Some of our great future Americans might not make it
To graduation at this rate and honestly that
And all this other malarky makes me sick
Oops! I guess that wasn’t so positive though...
