American Treason

You have been elected as the parapet of our commonwealth’s boarders, the tutelary of our cultures; You will hazard your livelihood, and witness barbarisms in your ventures. You are conveyed in fable as a Champion to the populous, you will be seen as the reviver of civility, cities will ascend from ashes by way of your bravery, and you will be exalted. Your allegiance will not be waivered as the accessions of treason bear mightily against you, and your bosom will be ornamented with the spoils of your gallantry. Your most herculean battle, my sons and daughters, will be that which besets you upon homecoming, a clash awaits your return to the very domain that hailed you so elegantly. You will have to fend as the common folks do, you will clamber to hold work, and if you have turned ill, you will be delayed in treatment for your woes; surely lowborn once again. You may be constrained to find shelter nether bridges and eaves of paper, your plume will be wasted when you grovel for coin, not fit to bathe in the structures for public feces. You will be spewed upon, they will turn a blind eye to your agony, daggers of vulgarity fired from the throats of those you had vowed to shield; those whom you relinquished limbs for. You may have forgone your mobility, you may have lost your brethren, your spouse may have coveted their neighbor, and you will most likely suffer the demise of the layperson. You have served your land gallantly. You have been afflicted horribly. You have grieved losses we find unimaginable. For this, we will disregard those who have gifted us our luxuries.
