my 'lovely country'.

it used to be,
supposed to be,
meant to be,
one nation.
the people's.

lately,
things have changed.
as economy,
and politics,
took its wrong turn.

immensely reminded,
educated most formal,
even ruled,
to respect the flag representing.

all for no matter what?

what if i am a little person?
what if i am the uneducated?
what if i am a homeless?
what if i am not the socialite?
what if i am nothing?

will my government,
appreciate me still?
protect me still?
stand up for me still?
responsible for me still?

or will i,
be the dump?
be the outcast?
be the isolation?
be the unimportant?

should i still call the country mine?
do i still need to love,
respect and,
fight for its freedom?

when i am already rejected.
without the bucks,
without the status,
without the name.
