I am America.

I am the blue sky above you.

I am the rainbow puddle in a parking lot

that you must step over.

I am your commute to work.

I am the dead dog on the side of the highway,

bloated.

I am pride,

and I am ignorance.

I am the underpaid teacher

and the kid selling weed.

I am all your faults.

I am all your dreams.

I am the man in line

not wearing a mask.

I am your lack of healthcare.

I am your uncle, your sister,

your friend.

I am America.
