Red White Blues

2016// Red White Blues

Two thousand sixteen

We're in a state of in between

Not left or right but in the middle

A white line between candidates that pleads a surrender flag

With each debate our nation’s heart is stabbed

We look at the wound and see that it has scabbed

Rough and raw,

Only God saw

The heart within the human

Red white and blue

Before time the creator knew

This mess was our own

Sin in society had been sewn

With each and every broken tear

We are faced with the image in the mirror

We voters go to polls

But this election won’t make us whole

No it’s not in politicians hands alone

It starts in this very home

Open up our doors to justice

Let love be our compass

The country has seen a little rust

But for eternity, it’s in God we trust
