The American Dream

A life filled with comfort

Safe

Everything you could ever need

And then some

High school diploma

A college degree

Working a nine to five job

Above minimum wage pay

Benefits

A nice big house

Complete with a white fence

A picture perfect family

With 1.86 kids and a dog

Average

Pew warmers, religious on paper

But actions and words show differently

The American dream

This is my future

To pursue, or not to pursue
