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?"
