Birds Of A Feather

Our country,

Now, more than ever,

Divided we stand,

Alone, we brave harsh weather.

In more ways than one,

We are birds of a feather,

Because when the time comes,

We are tethered together.

When provoked to choose 

Between one or the other,

Politics destroy

The bridges that led to the center.

Your friends are your friends,

"Hold your enemies closer"

Deciding must stand for 

How we can avoid such terror.

Elections are messy,

But show your opinions kinder,

This endeavor we face,

We can face together.
