White Picket FenceA Poem by Cory ScottWhat is the american dream?Repeat after me "I want to be free!" I want to seize the american dream With a white picket fence Encompassing me Repeat after me "I want to be free!" Work and pay taxes And fantasize about a life of luxury Repeat after me "I want to be free!" Fall in love and be wed And raise a family Repeat after me "How do I define being free?" Blindly accepting the ideologies of others or allowing your own self to see Your own hopes and ambitions To attain what you truly wish to achieve And that is not american But a Universal Dream
