Country of Cowards
Looking the other way,
Doesn’t make the problem disappear.
If you never shout,
Of course no one will hear.
But you turn your cheek,
Ignorance is bliss.
She’s just looking for attention,
Nothing is amiss.
We’re a country of cowards,
Though we parade so proudly.
I might shout alone,
But I’ll do so loudly.
