When your Country Fails You.

You live in this society

For protection.

You are gathered around others

who do what is needed to survive.

You give back to your country

but remember

what you give to your country

is the trust that they will protect you.

The rules they decide on

should not make you live in fear.

That is the sign of a bad government.

There will always some who can not live by the rules.

Some rules are unjust.

Change needs to happen

and sometimes when your country fails you

you need to speak out.

Especially when the unjust laws are put into place.

Fight and be heard.

Someday your children

(biological or societial) will thank you.
