Cracks Of Foundations Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

She's a woman.
And he is black.
Republicans and democrats...
Fighting to decide,
Who lacks what...
As conditions continue,
To slide into a nose dive.
A pettiness is revealed...
That exposes the cracks,
Of foundations...
Crumbling around us,
As these 'leaders'...
Freely each other attack!

Racist views in a land that is mixed.
Should not exist nor produce conflicts.
But all that this shows,
Is a selfishness that has become bloated...
And overdosed as publicly noted.
With a need to see who's greed,
Will succeed...
To turn what had been great,
To a serving of crumbled toast...
Disributed upon broken plates.
To feed the demonic who salivate!

And only then it seems...
Those with this need will boast!
And how sick can they be,
To willfully lead a fading empire...
With this mental disease!
To float aloft with ego eased...
Licking lips dipped with spitted quips,
And displaying such shallowed valor!

As all sit and observe,
Such a disturbing tragedy!
And the signs are around,
No longer hidden and easily found...
That God is not at all with us pleased!
And He is on the verge,
To bring us all to our knees!
Showing us our 'cancerous' ways...
Are devices He neither wishes,
Or this world He has created needs!
