Rendezvous With America by Melvin B. Tolson Whats is the Theme, 1 or 2 Sentence what is happening.

America can sing a lullaby
When slippered dusk steals down the terraced sky;
Then in a voice to wake the Plymouth dead
Embattled hordes of tyranny defy.

America can join the riotous throng
And sell her virtues for a harlot song;
Then give the clothes that hide her nakedness
To help her sister nations carry on.

America can worship gods of brass
And bow before the strut of Breed and Class;
Then gather to her bosom refugees
Who champion the causes of the Mass.

America can loose a world of laughter
To shake the States from cornerstone to rafter;
Then gird her mighty loins with corded strength
In the volcanic nightmare of disaster.

America can knot her arms and brow
And guide across frontiers the untamed plow;
Then beat the plowshares into vengeful swords
To keep a rendezvous with Justice now.
