The American Dream.
A myth.
A legend.
A question.
A promise
that if you work hard enough,
you can have everything
you’ve ever wanted.
But do they tell you
about the riots
the hatred carved between races?
Do they tell you
about the screaming children,
the broken schools,
the forgotten neighborhoods?
Do they tell you
about the cries in the dark,
about women hurt,
voices stolen,
futures taken
before they even begin?
The American Dream.
The men
working day into night,
giving everything
just to survive,
just to exist
with almost nothing.
Is nothing
the American Dream?
While billionaires sit in quiet rooms,
“teaching” the poor about money,
training the young
for lives of service,
for systems that were never built
for them to win.
Oh, the American Dream,
a dream.
That’s all it is.
Something some say
you will never reach.
But maybe
just maybe
it is real.
Maybe not for me.
Maybe not for you.
But for someone,
somewhere,
it will be.
The American Dream.
A dream we’re all still trying to chase.
