Sans America

Contributor: Eric Carl

- -
I'd like to take you home
make something of you
with you
of us
here
(not there)

I'd like to welcome you
to my country
to my family
to my life
to a life
we could make
here
(not there)

I can be yours, here
(not there)

There,
where every smile is hiding a frown
where every cost hides a tax, a fee
where every ad sells hard and bright
where every thing is crumbling
and no one seems to see
we
couldn't be.
