Our country is strong
We all know that
Said the politicians
To the diplomat
There’s no such thing
As an economic depression
Then they scurry on by
So they won’t have to gaze
Down the dark streets
Or the cold alleyways
Where America hides
Its transgressions

Rediscovery through poetry
of a son
See the world through my eyes
poetry, shorts, and other stuff
the world turns on a word
poetry and fiction on all wrecked feelings of the world.

Deep and powerful piece Jerry. The same is mirrored here in the UK. The dark streets must be the same – a place where politicians fear to tread.
