A Hero Is Dishonored

Alas, a US Marine saved a baby in Afghanistan. The USA, as a way to say thank you, puts him under investigation? Yes, a true hero, made the horrid mistake? Of being honored at a Trump rally, later, is that being a flake? I really don’t know this country anymore. As it’s OK to leave thousands of Americans behind Taliban’s death door.? And the lies from DC, stink like cheap, rotten bacon. This was no victory, leaving Americans and allies, behind to die, forsaken! So the heroic Marine in no hero for saving a tot, As The world is enamored of Chinese Tik Tok? Thirteen military dead, and as they were returned, they Our maniacal President studied his watch, my stomach just churned! We just cannot be human anymore? Just write jokes, and laugh, till our sides are sore? And dare you not comment to this! I was told that both I and my poetry hated like rotten fish? People loathe me, here, or so I was told. I am written up in comments, he said, both brash and bold! Exactly, because I don’t wear pigtails anymore! Nor hide in closets from reality’s human door. I know my God and He knows me. Knock off spreading dirt about any Poet you see! Christians know that saying all too well. “ Judge not, lest you be judged also.” Poetry Soup does not say, destroy others! We have rights here, or is it all covered? Hateful emails, murderous threats? Is this really ....as good as it gets? Poems I wrote to honor others? Why, they’d toss me off a cliff now, if they had their druthers? This grandmother, outdid many of you youngins’! Gave you intelligent comments, no itty bitty nuggets. Not even three years have I been here. But it’s looks like time to leave. Writers here, far better than I, are unread too. Not one of you, would like this to happen to you. But crack the whip is a game played here. The brave poets are avoided like dead deer. Best wishes, I will write my truth, and till I reach my goal. I warn you, commenting to me, they will be out after very your poetic soul. A commenter addict, no I am not. Having trouble walking, seeing and hearing is quite enough for my lot. Wishing you all, the courage to begin penning the truth of the day. You count, your life, your heart are most valued in everyway. An Angel told me,my name was used in a poem, in an insulting way. But then, both my name and her insulting comment were removed from it, and ingloriously, it became Poem of the I know the names of the these disreputable two. And their circle of adoring friends, quite a few! Masters of disguise,and of deception. Take an image of such talk, send it to God’s Discretion. Thank you for telling me who they were. Adorned with clip art,hiding beneath wolfs icy,umvarimg fur. 10/2/2021

The US Military has become woke and to go after this hero is outrageous. He wasn't in uniform at the rally and he does have the right to attend that rally and support whoever he wants be it a Republican or Democrat. Thank you so much for writing this. People who troll fellow poets are truly ugly trolls themselves.

Thank you Elena..trolls are not nice. They are here to destroy several others. They dress in cute clothes but carry daggers, it's OK. Poets write not troll. Just write. Do not concern yourself with toads ))) be above it. Pangie

I believe that somewhere in "that" book it says something like..."suffer the little children to come unto me".

This is a wonderful poem. His honor came at the Trump Rally where thousands cheered for him a and thousands more watched the Trump Rally. Theses are the people who value life and those who save it because they reverence it. Thank you for this poem. Choosing life is joyous.

Greetings, Madelyn! The other side would have loved having him on their side! Not being a member of the *mandate party* of course,he is under investigation. Such pinheads who let the infamous Hunter walk free and make millions. Now his Daddy is making the WH an art gallery for him?? I cannot outdo the Goebelian nonsense going on. But will not sit on my rear as we play the Marxist Mamdo. I grew up when the new Marxists were still AMERCANS. CAPITOL HILL is crawling with them as the country is being destroyed. Where are the camps for dissidents? They are there constructed by King Obama, years ago. Choosing life is right. Maybe that is why it’s hated by the new Marxists? God still rules this world. He knows all the viciousness going on. God help us all. Panagiota

Sorry you are receiving so much venom from other poets. That serves no positive purpose...neither for us as writers nor a writer's community. I am infuriated that this fine Marine is being persecuted by the Bidden/Obama/Hillary Administration. This Marine is a true hero, and he did exactly what, We The People, and his Nation would expect -- absolute honor and dignity. Now, making concerned parents terrorists, for trying to protect their/our children -- that is treason, Marxist Filth!!

Standing up to hate is not hate, even in 1939 a certain country would stand up for what you just said.

Anthony, who is quickly becoming a most admirable man to me~another, who cherishes the rights that are the soul of this country. Cheers! I study history and am aware how wolfen like people bled their countries and the Gestapo tactics they used! Not on my watch! Bless you my friend, Panagiota

Surely heroes should be honored. Freedom to vote your conscience. Unconscionable the hatred of our heroes.
