Property For Sale
Captivating property with panoramic view
Painted with pride in red white and blue
Once standing proud and renowned everywhere
Foundation's eroding from lack of care
Wonderful neighbors, bilingual you know
French to the north and Spanish below
Beautiful shoreline on the east and the west
Lately her structure has been put to the test
Tenants won't mind if you take over the land
They have learned to bury their head in the sand
The property changes managers every four to eight years
Lately the managers have brought the tenants to tears
Selling out at this time may not be right
But the tenants won't mind, they've learned not to fight
The property is run from an ivory tower
Swallowed in greed and corrupted with power
The walls are collapsing, it seems such a sin
If you are going to rebuild, you must start from within
The property rules which were once black and white
Have faded to gray or are nowhere in sight
There are mountains and prairies, fields and streams
A place for your children and a place for your dreams
But now that I've thought about it you can go to Hell
This property is mine and I never will sell.
This poem is written for the politically correct morons in three piece suits
making military decisions affecting the lives of our troops, decisions they are not
qualified to make. They might be able to spell integrity and are able to use it in a
sentence but don't know how to use it in their lives. They have put this country
up for sale to the highest bidder. They have sold us out to OPEC and we are
supposed to bow our heads and just accept it. My Flag, My country. If you
don't like it LEAVE!!.
