A Muddy Eden
What happened to this Eden,
Flawed from the start?
High ideals penned on parchment,
Then cracks appeared
And widened through the decades.
The face of Liberty,
And purity's facade,
Flags waving over amber fields.
The flag wrinkled.
The face withered.
And purity decayed,
An inner, twisted decay
Behind white pillars.
Platitudes muffled
The murmurs of corruption
Hid the dirty hands
Exchanging payment.
Check her out.
