A Colossus Part 2dedicated To All Who Served and All Who Are Serving Our Country

Take care of her Keeping toes and ties off the ground Beware of those with savage intent To draw her down Beware those of quisling heart Who seek only to pillage then plunder her All those faces leering, cajoling, jeering then cheering Distant recollections surface Unwinding their purpose A catalogue of misadventure THEIR venom put upon YOU As they race towards their judgmental conclusions Rabid and acrid Hypocritical bigotisms abound Calling a DIAMOND, when a spade is just a spade. Cathartic embolisms hold ears to ground THIS wins NO points Brings NO praise Wears NO crown The caterwauling of corruption Casting dispersions, then claiming coercion An aberration distilled down to its basest most repugnant desires Wanton ADORATION to feed that nepotistic idolatry The equivocation, The skullduggery The pettifoggery, the subterfuge, The pontification, The verascification Dealt to all in attendance. With all its scheming, and shifting and sideways leaning The chicanery of blackest soul Whose demarcation is bound by and to, those most easily bled, those most easily misled. The ebb and flow of the waves coming and going As they plead and pine Quickly now, retreating A slender pole with simple cord, is slowly dressed in Her Red White and Blue A bit tattered A bit torn Threadbare and Worn Holds a message of SACRIFICE , of DUTY, of HONOR OF HER TRUTHS PROMISED. HER emancipated can bare no more system wide degradations. The indignities cast upon her by those who hold the keys to HER hallowed halls, TIGHT to their chests Allowing NOT The promise of a justice blind, impartial, dealt with even hand over all her land. We pledge to HER our loyalty, not one man We pledge to HER as ONE country United beneath her splendor A PLEDGE of Love for her and to one another.
