The WE generation

It is far more effective
For We The People
To come together
To repair and replace the aching limbs of our great nation.

No matter which branch of our nation
No matter the size of the twig that we hold

We all come together at the trunk
The trunk provides for all
From the earth through which our nation is rooted
To the bright green leaves that seek the morning sun.

The bounty of our collective energy
Is realized not only when we maintain our branches and leaves
But more importantly, when we elect to take care of our shared trunk.

For when our trunk dies,
Our nation falls to its knees.
It is then that our enemies knock on our stoop
To finish destroying us
And to pick up the pieces of our
Divided and broken home.
