The Greatness of a Country
The greatness of a country
lies in its fortified unity:
one soul, one mind, one ideal;
woe to him if truth
does not honor his promised words,
they'll strip his title of all
dignity and pride...
many before him have sworn
an oath of true infamy.
He salutes his flag
in a military pose;
silence fills the hall,
the voters give him
a long standing ovation:
he's their President.
