In America, We Value Freedom

In America, we value Freedom
Unless it lessens corporate profit.
Then we find it burdensome
And demand just the opposite.

In America, we value Freedom
Unless the Other is in office.
Then we find it burdensome
& Freedom hangs from a precipice.

In America, we value Freedom
Unless yours interferes with mine.
Then we find it burdensome
And that's where we draw the line.
