"Best"

Best in the world -
At perpetrating a Fraud.
Best in the world
At creating a Facade
Of Equal Justice,
Of Human Rights.
Yes... the best in the world
At screwing over the poor.
Best in the world -
At creating this lie.
This lie called justice,
Equality for all.
That's a bunch of BS.
For the poor shall Fall -
Fall through the cracks,
Down through the crevasses.
Equality was a lie,
Yes - nothing but a sham!
Best in the world -
At hiding this deceit.
Yes - the best in the world...
One nation under God
Where America perpetrates -
This great FRAUD!!

Hi,

I transcribed and enjoyed reading your poem and found it a very powerful statement against American injustice and hegemony.

Stay hopeful,

Hari
