I Pledge Allegiance

I Pledge Allegiance

A Poem by Breanna Ragland

I pledge allegiance  
To this land. 
I forfeit all freedoms 
To the upper hand. 
A country broken 
Far and wide. 
Crumbled by the hands 
Of the rich and divine. 
What was once a choice, 
Is now demand. 
Led by hypocrisy, Lies,
Deceit and scams. 
We are no longer one nation 
Under god. 
But instead a society 
That' has lost their cause. 
So here I stand, 
A voiceless face. 
In this mess we call 
The United States.
