Close To Home
Written By: D. Collins 3/15/24
It hits close to home when it comes to truth.
About the stuff that went down in World War II.
While Russia was delivering the knockout blow.
We were Shanghaiing scientist on the low.
That pissed the Russians off like never before.
Thus, the beginning of the existing Cold War.
Those same Nazi scientists we had scurried away.
Started what is the NASA that we know today.
Instead of sharing the wealth for everyone's gain.
We chose to deceive to stay ahead of the game.
We created animosity and a serious lack of trust.
Now, improved Nazi rockets are pointed right at us.
