We The People

 

A good and decent man

A good and decent woman

We want

We need

Common sense

A value of decency

We need justice

We need equality

We need compassion

We need to understand

We need to be understood

We need

We need to live

In peace and unity

With a shared

Sense of community

And security

We need

A sisterhood

A brotherhood

All men

All women

Every child

In need

We need

To disavow

Hatred

Selfishness

And greed

For it is

In the giving

That we are blessed

To receive

In shared

And trying times

Such as these

Look around you

We the People need
