Premium Member The Obiturary of the United States
Lower the flags to half mast,
America the Beautiful has been gutted,
Its word emptied of all meaning,
There is no jubilant throng singing,
“Glory, glory Hallelujah!”
Our nation’s heroes rise 
From their earthen graves enraged
And cry out to the heavens,
“Have our cruel deaths been in vain?!”
Their ghosts march en...

Our justice system is far from perfect, but it is what we’ve got
Just because you break the law, doesn’t mean you deserve to die or get shot
This is the United States of America, we are not a third world nation
If you don’t live here, then...

Individuals that fought for;
their families,
their homes, 
their towns, 
their cities, 
their states, 
their new country!
America.

The land of the free! 
The men and women that fought and paid in blood,...

United States of Nudist
Writing poetic confessions is akin to visiting a Nudist state
Well, the concept sounds good, but all this exhibitionism -- 
The Naked performing unsteady cartwheels, their dangly bits -- 
Makes it seem like a bad idea.

Taking a break in the pleasant air
Look at how happy they...

It's the 'Pound' we use in Britain,
And it's always...

Oh land of the free
And home of the brave, where are you?
Where is the torch that hearkens
The tired, the poor, the huddled masses yearning to be free?

Become acceptance of
Only one religion?
When did freedom of speech only exist
When the listener and speaker...
