RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: AMERICAN DEMOCRACY
Florida Sleeps
They complain about being woke
I don’t know what they mean
They feel oppressed by our progress
From everything I’ve seen
They don’t like those kids in Parkland
They want guns in every home
They despise the ones who dance
And those who wear a darker tone
While the nation marches forward
They’re enamored with the past
While others push to get there first
They’re determined to be last
They don’t care about our freedom
They don’t care if mothers weep
While the rest of us awaken
The state of Florida sleeps
