I share your rage against those who so mindlessly and blindly rage against the place that gave them more than they would likely have gotten anywhere else earth. Great poem/battle-cry!

This work has reached the exceptional level

Although I prefer rhyming poetry, I agree with your post. We have allowed
a minority to take control of the majority. If Biden is elected, it won't take long for people to see they made an unrepairable mistake. We will never be able to get the country back. Very good post. Read my most recent poem "America What Happened." I believe we are on the same page.

Excellent job on your poem! Yes, America needs to stand these days like no other;-)

I would consider changing the background color otherwise it seems so cold.

Well written and thank you so much for sharing;-)
Many blessings to you and your family;-)

"I hate America, I hate you, I hate."
"We don't want the freedom you died for. We want
to tear down everything including history;"
These are my favorite, we must get angry if for a minor group of people everything still goes wrong and our governors don't take their responsibility. Great work JLR!

I do understand the sentiment in this poem. I don't believe however in burning down cities to drive home a point. Violence should never be justified in the expression of one's sentiments. Law and order should always be honored in a civilized society. An excellent write, thanks for sharing your insights to the readers. God bless.

This twenty-line poem, Tattered but Not Done, has the correct line count and witnesses a society at war with its soul. We will go on from here changed somehow, hopefully for the better.

Well done.

Blessings, and thank you for this great 20 Line entry. I agree, and believe most Americans agree whole heatedly with what you state in this great poem. We should stand for what was fought and died for, paid for by the blood of of our true Patriots. If we don't stand and speak up, we cheapen all that they did and all America stands for. The public school system and Universities have failed us greatly in that they have not taught our youth America's beautiful History but have only focused on the bad. Sadly, today we are seeing the results. God help us!

    Frank thank you! We must get a handle on this before we simply slip to far from our founders guidelines, I constantly pray for LEADERSHIP to rise like a Phoenix from our ashes.

    I join in your prayer.

Wonderful reflections upon the challenging times we are going through and yes, sometimes actions are devoid of reason, I guess, there's too much freedom that should be curtailed. Great presentation in simple and meaningful words with a perfect picture. Thanks you.
