Wings of Desire

My Stepdad is strong.

Strong in strength.

Strong in character.

He's a Kung Fu Master.

He is soft spoken, and kind.

He comes from one of the most

Beautiful places on earth...

Mexico.

He works hard for his money

In America,

And it's people like him

That make America great.

I refuse to believe

That the Mexican people

Have anything to do with our

Economic collapse...

That blood stain's been a long time coming...

We've had a ruined system

Long before Ronald Reagan shrugged

His shoulders and told everyone

To "pull theirselves up by their bootstraps..."

While he ratted on his fellow man...

We've been treading water

Long before Hoover led his Witch trials

And jailed foreigners for spite...

We've been bumping around in the dark

With no seeing eye dog for decades,

But the rich entitled assholes pointing fingers

Have not improved things in the least...

My Stepdad is a good man,

And a shining example

Of what to aspire to

Despite all odds against you...

He makes me want to try harder

To keep a light burning for my lofty dreams...

So many things are possible....

One must only dare to try.
