People are oblivious to the truth, they don't want to see it. It's because all that's displayed in death and agony. Thank you for sharing

Nice artwork that complements your poem very well. I think this is the way things are in the States just now. We hope they ban Trump rather sooner than later. I never read anything from you but this was a joy to review.

Hi
What a deep and meaningful poem.
Which describes the lies the media spin with such vivid imagination.
The dramatic word play is fantastic which strengthens your statement brilliantly.
and a great picture to accompany
Mitchell.

A well written opening paragraph. A deep and well written second paragraph, well done. The angsty mood flow very well in paragraph 4. Good ending. Great work, keep it up.

It is high time that we the people, quit paying so much attention to the media with its fake news and those in politics who bold face lie to us. We need to be an educated people, and I am afraid we are becoming more uneducated each day. Patricia

Your poem sticks to the heart of all Americans, freedom is what we're about, and we need to remember that. I do believe in protecting this country, but locking the doors, to people searching for freedom is not the answer. Only question is, is where do we draw the line.

I have decided to quit listening to the radio, reading about all the stuff going on. It's all distressing, and I'd rather experience 'a brighter future', as you say. Blessings...

The US spells freedom and your land of the free has a reputation to uphold. Celebrate with great joy as there are many parts of the world where freedom and liberty is a distant dream, love Dolly x

The Media can be a very dark and depressing industry because they lean more toward Death and destruction, lies and loathing, they seem to want to serve it up over and over and over again. They deal in half truths and their own agendas unfortunately and that is not just in your country friend that is a worldwide sickness...

BRAVO!
A patriot!
I believe we're on the right track if Congress will ever get off their proverbial bottoms and support their President who may say things in an unpolitical way, but has the gumption to do what is right and needed for this country. I am sad at the divisiveness and angry, too.
Thank you for standing up for the man who is trying his best to make America her best. good job.
