Usa (America) Did Not Die

For crying out loud Due to the outcome I was not particularly proud For more than two centuries, election days go and come At a similar season, every four years This time, there were plenty of wows and tears Of disappointment, heartbreak, anger, anxiety and sadness And the other half was full of glee or happiness Such is life. Politics is a dirty and unpredictable animal No, America did not die. Things are normal We're still talking about immigration, liberty Freedom of speech, and of course the economy We're hoping that everything will be better America has been great for a long time, forever It's redundant to add ‘again' to the propaganda Yes, America did not drown or die in the middle of the political saga In the wrath of the hurricanes or in the deadly spillover of the rivers Where the two parties fought fiercely like two hale tigers America is an immensely prosperous country Ignore the false promotional and advertising slogan America is a huge market with a very rich economy Ignore the wacky and delusional politicians and Élon Tigers, lions, jaguars and hyenas are fighting and vying For their portion or stomach. It is a new political spring In November. America will not die, on the contrary We pray, hope and dream to see a better country. Copyright © November 2024, Hébert Logerie, All rights reserved.
