Love of country

Here’s a poem for anyone who lays claims to being a lover of our country. Recite this to those who think that attacking ourselves is patriotic.

One who loves the USA

does not assault

the House of the People.

One who incites the people

to assault their own house

does not love the people,

does not love the House

of the People,

does not love the USA.

D’Wayne Hodgin
