American Classics Poem
American Classics Poem
Integration is a big thing these days
Freedom buses with foreign strays
Outside representatives were they
Who wanted to take our freedom away.
Good old John Bircher's radicals by far
Will cover others with feathers and tar
Then there is the aristocratic DAR
Still trying to fight the Civil Wah.
Harry Goldwater with pomp and charm
Quickly throwing up a conservative arm;
Steel strike's happening said in alarm
Raising gas prices will do good not harm.
Please don't draft me President Kennedy
Have wonderful wife with children three
Away from them I would have to be
To Lebanon, Mid-East or West Germany.
America all full of freedom and liberty
Voice of the people and home of the free
Breeder of corruption and hypocracy
Lets uncover ourselves from the debre.
James Thomas Horn, Retired Veteran
Wrote this in early 60's while serving
country in the Air Force.
