The Greatness Of America Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

The greatness of America.
Has more of an ethnic face.
Than European.
And facts diminished to erase them,
Maybe difficult to face.
By those who believe,
Their presence is being replaced...
By a diversity of 'minorities'.
Long inhabiting these shores.
Re-written history ignores.

Inflicting division to implement racism.
Between tribes is not a new invention.
Surviving native American Indians know this.
The first to experience,
Being chased away by effective wickedness.
Done to minimize and eventually erase,
Truth to delude those restricted to fantasize.

Yet...
As time progresses.
And the presence of truth strengthens.
Will it be truth that rises.
To have it realized who fears it most.
With deception as their weapon.
Enticing to ignite,
Lies told to tell and sell sold.
To the many unconscious provoking conflicts.
Done successfully.
But only time will reveal,
If truth or deception...
Will continue America's greatness.
With a future to behold and witnessed.
