I Am An American

2-11-3

Dear Jeff,
 
I am a high school teacher and I found this poem crumpled up at the end of the school day. I was rather surprised by it. Perhaps its not worthy of posting but I am surprised that a 16 or 17 year old would be so aware of the changes in their world. I have not had anyone come forward as the author so, for now, it remains anonymous.
 
Sincerely,
 
P.S. Should you post this, I ask that my name and e-mail address be withheld.
 
I am an American
 
I am an American, I believe in freedom.
 
I am an American; I live in the greatest country in the world.
 
I am an American, I trust my government to do what's right.
 
I am an American; I ask, "What can I do for my country?"
 
 
I am an American, I surf the web with impunity.
 
I am an American, I watch 36 hours of television a week.
 
I am an American, I believe in the media to tell me the truth.
 
I am an American, my government doesn't lie.
 
 
I am an American; I wait in line all day.
 
I am an American; I do as the authorities tell me.
 
I am an American, tell me what to think.
 
I am an American, tell me what to believe, I forgot.
