249th

blow out your candles. 

make a wish.

hold up a protest sign.

tonight the fireworks spell R E S I S T.

your hair's in pigtails braided red blue and white.

this country's like a drawing colored out of the lines.

happy birthday america.

you never asked for this.

and someday you hope to see a better fourth of july.
