Second Thoughts about "America First"

by Greg Asimakoupoulos

Posted: February 4, 2017

The Bible trumps our President's initiative

America First? Chapter? Verse?
Where is that in God's Book?
To seek our own finds us alone
and baiting our own hook.

America First creates a thirst
for ego-driven dreams.
It fuels the soul with selfishness goals
and self-inflating schemes.

America First? My bubble's burst.
God blest us so we'd bless
the least and lost at any cost.
We must to be our best.
