Political Poem: Urban Liberty Plea!

by Nadra Enzi

Am

I wrong

To want

Little old ladies

In the inner city

Safe

As Obama's family

In DC?

 

Am I

wrong

To want homeowners armed

Like police when sounds

Intruder alarms?

 

Am

I wrong

To say civil rights starts

In the womb?

 

Am

I wrong

To want

Poor,

Huddled masses

In the

Inner city

Successful

And happy

Like

Bill Cosby?

 

Am

I wrong-

Tell me?
