One Vote

One vote by itself seems less than a wonder
for history is a much larger thing – millions
of nays, millions of yeas, to suggest one small 
voice need be heard, to think any little voice could
make a large difference in the greater scheme seems 
quite absurd. For one little vote a young man took a
bullet in the throat, left any Opera Ambitions in
Germany, never again to sing a cherished note,
just for the right to cast one tiny vote. For One vote,
Omaha beach took 2,400 lives. For One vote, another
29,000 died in Normandy.  For One vote, 5.000 American
boys perished at Guadalcanal, another bloodstained shore. 
All having died for one single vote, which democrats
counterfeit and Universities treat like a joke, faux 
men in dresses stand in-front of students mocking
a great nation's selfless patriots who donned uniforms  
to fight for a land they unitedly love and adore. Lost 
limbs in battle yet proudly declare, for cherished freedom 
we would honorably sacrifice more. Pervert Demigods, to mush
minded students, preach anarchy, the benefits of Marxist
society, promote all manor of deviant sex and brain deadening 
recreational smoke. One vote. One vote. One vote.
