Thieves
by Henry Burt Stevens

Stole my flag--
flags only
for patriots
not activists

took my voice--
voices only
for cheering
not questioning

hurt my pride--
pride only
for believers
not skeptics

took my tolerance--
tolerance only
for losers
not winners

asked me to leave--
my country
doesn't need
or want me.
