Muslims and blacks, and women too,
Asians, Latinos, what good do they do?
Immigrant foreigners corrupting our lifestyle,
Best keep them out, at least the most vile
Walls and police to protect whites and wealthy
Climate neglected and no longer healthy
America first? … as humanity thirsts,
For justice and peace — to say the least
It should be quite clear for all to see
This view of us does not have to be
Demagogues and hate will not make us great,
And damned we will be if enabling this fate
This moment of truth — beginnings to ends
Time to pick sides, save souls and make friends.
