Cost of Trust

"In God We Trust." 'o Red, White,& Blue; so money's "Holy," then taken from you. Red:bloody bed, Lincoln's dripping head. White:skin-paling as life's bled. Blue:clothed pigs that made you cry. Green:"trust in God" that helps us die. Burning paper-greed. Flag for each un-grown seed. Sold as "thought" to a richer man. Oh, definately part of God's great-Plan! His Kingdom come, under our nuclear sun. Red:a heated mind for all unsaid. White: trash, lies & filth we're fed. Blue: face taking its last breath. Green:oxygen, sold for your death! May as well quit the hard-earned profession, God's upped the price of that next confession. Freedom's colors are certainly found. Couldn't be free'r with a newly bought hole in the ground! We're so smart with "technical lust", but what's to expect, when it's "in God we trust?"
