 Listening to Raindrops  (E)
Triolet about the way a gentle rain relaxes me.

The "Blogging Circle of Friends prompt for DAY 1532
Begin a poem, story or rant with this line "More and more people were refusing to obey the laws of the land".

We The People

More and more people were refusing to obey the laws of the land
trying to force their own agendas,
in order to increase their own profits,
upon a multicultural nation.


"We the people"
no longer seem to matter
to those hungry for profit and power.

"We the people"
are fodder
in the mills of politicians
and profiteers
ignoring the laws of the land,
ignoring echoes of our forefathers
proclaiming "all men are created equal",
ignoring the grass roots struggle
to bring our country in alignment
with our forefathers' proclamation.
