Poetic Thoughts - #300,000,000 / Today Here - by C.W. Pruitt II

#300,000,000

Today (my today - as I move my pen to make these words; not your today - as you read these words) America is welcoming the theoretical American number 300,000,000. All of the news shows are speculating on what life will be like for this numerically special person. I feel that this is a valid question to ask.
Here is a poem I just composed (today) on the 300,000,000th American:

Today Here

Today
they say
that #300,000,000
will be
born in
or
sworn in
here.
i hope
that person grows
to know
more love
than fear
Here.
