funny
how some folk
don't want to know
the true American story.
Europeans hijacked
this continent
and claimed it in spite of the people
who were already here
(say they discovered them no less)
at the point of a gun.
who is the real criminal?
who is the real illegal
alien?
maybe the original peoples
should have built
a wall?
