Lawrence S. Pertillar - What Is Maintained

Doesn't it seem as if those most delusional,
Are those in public protesting their rights.
Shouting their dislike for the 'aliens'...
Crossing their borders,
And diminishing their historic interests!

And not one product has been manufactured,
On their shores since one of the earlier wars.
They import more from foreigners than they export.
Their jobs have been outsourced.
And the land they stand on has been sold.
And few of the buyers have had passports.

However...
What is maintained and they do keep sacred...
Is their archaic racist beliefs!

Lawrence S. Pertillar
