The Nation Or Detonation

Plunge deeper now, but keep within
the cost of armor for the win,
climb higher, higher ~ own the sky
the pulse of sentry needing . . . . "why!"

Speak lower, hiding your true cause
your neighbor"s vitals, need applause?
Bring forward all complaints that knaw,
or jeopardize with failing's flaw!

The Nation stands and waits in trial,
all motives grand, relate denial ~
it was the other guy's hem-haw,
that kept us in recession's aisle!!

Bring anger to the course, exile
new government must stay remorse,
if challenges resource our file
it's still your check that we endorse!
