Kneeling....Isn't Always.....A Prayer Poem by James B. Earley

Which of your images Mr President
...Should I stand...and admire
That...of the Confederacy
.....Or would you require

That...Old Glory....I honor
Lest you put me to shame
For calling out its bigotry....
You would belittle...my name

Why not admonish instead
White supremacists friends
Your Nazi loving cohorts
....Why...would you defend

That flag of the Confederacy
....Yet...bother....to deplore
A Black man simply kneeling...
Why have there been no uproar

About your thieving...deceiving
....The pathetic liar you are
Your robbing....of our Treasury
....That proverbial...cookie jar

It's never too late Mr President
...That...new leaf.....a fresh start
Why not bring our Nation...together
....Instead....of ripping....it apart

Which of your images Mr President
...Should I stand...and admire
