SHAME
Shame on you, America.
You should hang your face.
Your morals are atrocious
And your actions a disgrace!
Where are all our heroes,
Our statesmen strong and bold?
Evaporated values
Has stripped us of our goals.
Flashed across the nation
Bedroom escapades.
Guarded words and actions—
It’s really a charade!
Washington’s my hero—
Exemplary action.
Honorable, warm and giving.
A nation’s satisfaction!
A president’s duty—
Hold the standard high.
Desire a life of honor—
Achievable if you try.
America, put on sack cloth,
A rip upon your cloak!
Return to Christian values
Otherwise, we’ll croak!
March 1998
Love this, Martha. The title says it best!
