Stolen Assets

As a natural excessive practiced,
Of stolen assets,
Still active in mindsets.
To retrieve from others,
Declaring ownership to get.
In progressive societies.
Known to leave many with less.
Expressing to have no shown regrets.
As a way to protect false pretensions kept.
Has become accepted.
Officially.
By those elected in positions expected.
Using a power.
Done to please their constituents.
With a promise they too,
Can break the laws and disobey rules.
Regardless who opposes.
Or who may refuse.

Left worried are the meek.
Weakened by the audacity.
To see in disbelief.
Their resources confiscated.
And what they had possessed,
Stripped away from under their feet.
Defenseless against crooks and thieves.
Never again,
To have returned back to them.

And this today to protest and demand,
Has been interpreted as a rising threat.
By those defending,
Their capitalistic way of life.
As a way to keep in sight,
Entitlements to do...
Whatever they choose and like.
While pretending to fight,
For a democracy without equality.
Or the presence of civil rights!

Yet nowhere around,
To observe and perceive...
This ideal of democracy.
Is free from discriminating,
The ones of different diverse ethnicities.

Although heard to hear,
Spoken in speeches rhetorically.
About an image that represents,
Democracy to mean and it meant...
Has become more 'socialistic'.
Less pure to idolize.
And less discovered to symbolize.

'We...
You and me and those chosen to be,
Flawlessly born without blemishes.
And obviously in the image,
Of wholesome unmistaken purity.
Must together,
Make America a place Great Again.
When thieving undocumented,
Refugees and immigrants.
Unlawfully crossed our borders.
To assume and believe they too,
Are deserving to share,
What was once theirs we stole.
Because of a history retold.

'Uh...
Are you admitting your theft,
To now have regrets?'

'Are you kidding?
I am only admitting that those like me.
Deluded to fiction,
A reality to distort it for centuries.
Is a way of life we must protect.

Unless the majority of us should decide,
Our implemented to cement way of life...
Is reinvented with agreed interests,
To accept without evidence or facts.
That our ancestors were actually,
Traveling as visitors in Africa.
Laying on beaches upon that land.
Getting tans.
When they were Europeans captured.
And no one accepted to believe this.
To then confiscate from them,
Everything they had.
Including the clothes they wore.
With this done to arrive on these shores.
Declaring themselves to be,
Peace keeping Pilgrims.
And faithful followers of Christianity!'

'Incredible are your lies.
But your delivery,
Is fantastically entertaining!'

'And...
That's why I am where I am.
Supported and endorsed.
And your truth to hear it bores.
Enough to ignore more of it to hear.
Now...
I'll give you one final opportunity,
To stand behind me.
Waves flags.
As I salute to pretend...
For the media,
Of course.
That I am a true patriot.
Pledging my allegiance to facism!'

'You mean democracy. Right?'

'Whatever.
Democracy, socialism, fascism?
It's all the same to me.
As long as I stay,
The center of everyone's attention!
(Sings)
Oh, say can you see,
Me to be yours faithfully.
I'll protect you from harm.
For as long as...
Needed to be!'

'That is not our National Anthem.'

'The people could care less.
As long as I keep them believing,
Their interests kept in me...
Is all I need from them to address!'
