To launch this very great and noble land.
Neither you nor I, could do that task!

constitutionally protected value
hidden in Preambulation
and historical Declaration
reaffirming U.S. healthy democracy,
our Holy Grail.

Life
liberty
pursuit of happiness
well-being

During Enlightened Elder
1700s,
and still largely our worldview today

Follow the rules or what?
Will you hit me with a belt?

I am an American you know.

Watching California fall to fire
Watching the smoke grow ever higher 
People losing all

A summer’s morn, dark skies, forlorn.
Burning, smoking, California cities, this August morn,

Our state with illegal, infected people overrun.
