Vi Ransel - American Diversion

Where is the kiss
that will awaken the Sleeping Beauty
What will jog the memory
of Revolutionary American Duty

When will we demand an account
of how our money's being spent
and the actions taken by those we 'hire'
to administer the business of our government

Why aren't we concerned when Congress
passes laws that act to our detriment
What are we doing that's more important
than our children's future - not to mention their present

Why won't we deal with reality in its depth
instead of seeing issues in black
