Trail of Tears

While this poem talks about the mistreatment of Native Americans. That is not the main message of the poem.The poem is a reflection on human nature.  Throughout history and everyday life people continue to act in selfish ways that are beneficial to ones self with blatant disregard for others. This can be seen through the plight of Native Americans in our country's past.

I have recently learned the world is full of fakes and liars

Hypocrites, leeches, and greedy conspirers

All this observed from high school folks

It’s a history lesson remember James K. Polk

Reannexation of Texas and Reoccupation of Oregon

Here we go again

Forty-ninth parallel it’s boring

Somebody is snoring in the back of the class

Backpack on his back way down to his a**

Manifest destiny manifest when we

 Execute the opposition

To gain what is ours rightfully

But is it right, to have a rifle fully loaded

take life’s because of our own greed

Trail of tears Native American removal policy

1835 it was signed in the treaty

Cherokees died on Andrew Jackson’s orders to march forcefully

And how would we fill if we were mocked degraded into products

Jeep Grand Cherokee

What if it was named instead Jeep Grand Caucasian

The outrage the hoopla would be amazing

Can we care about we instead of the self-centered focus on me?
