You can hate me for what I represent

[Jeness18]

I’m an American,
You can hate me
For what I represent
Soldiers beating up random victims
As they please
Treating human beings
Worse than dirt on the ground
Beating them until their heart breaks down
The victims do not fight back
But only wish to be freed
Because they are not the ones
Who caused this creed?
Are we the enemy?
Is the question…
Asked by me.
I’m learning more about these people
They are connecting with me
It hurts to hear their cries
Of fear
Nightmares of Terrorism used to haunt me
But now that I have learned the Truth
This whole world in general
Frightens me
I am an American,
You can hate me
For what I represent
The war to end
And peace to come at hand
In my wishful magic land

Nice poem. I wouldn't class all american soldiers as evil. I know some get really traumatised by what they see.

I live in u.s all my life, when clinton took power u.s was alot more better according to me....I dont hate American citizens, i live in u.s i got nothing to hide.. I just hate Bush admistration since 2001, not just war, but also joblost, health care, katrina and alot more...Other countries, thats something to do with iraq war and bush.....

Well, when I recently became a full-fledged American citizen, I seriously wondered whether or not I would invite the hate of some people on me... And not just those residing in Muslim countries...
