Patriots Poems

HEARTLESS PATRIOTS

Once again, they horde the fuel
Tricking everyone to blame the gov't spoil.
Weeks ago, they pledged loyalty
To serve her faithfully with all might
Yet here they are, inflating prices, pocketing taxes.

They saluted the flag with pride so grand
But in their eyes, Sierra Leone is a battlefield 
Where, like a jungle, the fittest survives
Even if leaving compatriots to die
To a grueling inferno on a highway drive.

Like a puppeteers, they toy with prices
Steal and champion every vice there is
Their loyalty to the country is a hollow shell
Where offsprings of deception dwell
Their places of worship arenas to trample the hearts of their compatriots
Treating each of us like idiots.

A heartless patriot, an empty shelf
Striving to fill up, putting country behind self.
Wretched monsters by all indication
Boasting of knowledge and the best education
But the day of reckoning looms, where truth will eclipse their deceit.

From Every Patriots Grave

From the patriots grave there comes a disturbance
a sound so faint it is distant less. It floats in on the wings of absurdity.

It defies the continuity of human expiration, upending the status quo
and invading the promised tranquility of the patriot's rest.

The sound stirs forever sleeping neighbors, displeasing compatriots
who had, as fated, come to peace with nonexistence.

Old threats, assumed battlefield defeated, are revived in the incoherent
oratory of an amoral man's quest for unrepressed power.

The sound he summons is autocracy rising, growing louder, 
and not that far away. Pomposity begets confusion, discord follows.

Was this not the screamed rhetoric of long ago? Incendiary promises to
make their country great again. Instead, oratory that set it afire.

The fires, so long ago, dead heroes died to extinguish. New tyranny disturbs
forever slumber. Dead heroes, in graves, have no more to give.

We need new patriots to rise, to resist today's promised tyranny and quiet the hatred that hovers over America and the graves of heroes. All deserve peace.

Not Patriots--Amoeba Types

The insurrectionists of January 6 are NOT patriots!
They are criminals of the lowest amoeba-types
Most patriots were at work improving the G.N.P.
Not carousing and malingering to air their gripes.

Can you imagine an American president colluding,
Encouraging rabble-rousers to storm the Capitol,
Giving tacit approval to hanging his vice-president?
In my opinion, his behavior was clearly lunatical!

And, he is still clamoring for the nation’s attention
Bloviating far and wide, spouting despicable lies,
I’m flabbergasted that so many are on his team
Celebrating and cheering on our nation’s demise.

A long-time presidential aficionado, I hasten to say,
That Donald Trump’s picture among our presidents
Is utterly disgraceful, a travesty of the worst kind,
He should be prosecuted to law's fullest extents.

New Patriots

Anarchy upon us
in less than ten years…
Nothing can stop it
neither hoping nor tears

The Founding Father’s
warning to ring…
“Revolution calling”
Jeffersonian brings

The mop or the handle
our floor will be cleaned
The face of new patriots
living unseen

Blood will be sacrificed
discord to reign
But out of its torrent
—freedom reclaimed

(Independence Hall: June, 2022)

False Patriots Wrap Themselves In the Flag

The conservatives 
Like to Fly the Flag
Wrapping themselves
In the flag
As they loudly proclaim
That they are the only patriots
As they defile the flag
With their hatred

Patriots Throughout the Ages Hi

From John Paul Jones, and days of old. To Mel Gibson, on the silver screen. What do patriots have in common, with each other.They choose to subjugate part of their lives and being, in their belief it is necessary to save the nation.What other motivation could justify the actions, of leaving family and friends to carry out the quest. Hoping their example will energize the rest. To be at the top of their game, ignoring the superficial. All areas, personal, and radar in sync. Not the weak link.To see in time the incoming threat. Not playing tag and hide and seek, with an ally not really so meek.

National Pride

Yes, we were forced into national pride,
Singing the anthem at assembly time,
Little patriots to the core,
God saved something in times of yore!

Patriots

(P)articipate and don’t be silenced
(A)ct on the facts and truth
(T)rust that we can overcome this
(R)ebuild our country together
(I)nteract in a positive supportive way
(O)vercome all this by unity
((T)reat each other with respect
(S)urvive by preparation and vigilance

Patriots V Loyalists

True patriots,
regardless of color, creed, or cathartic party,
are loyal to cooperative interdependent change
from below
and within
as needed to liberally balance conserving health
to co-empower compassionately wealthy democracy.

Fake patriots
are like colonial loyalists
supporting patriarchal monocultures,
status quo
business as competitively usual,
dubiously needed to reactively protect 
exclusive
from above 
and outside wealth of kings.

As if patriotic wealth could ever survive
privileged autonomous apartheid,
one way receiving,
without any giving back 
EarthTribe eco-patriotic value.

Passion can overpower
all resonant and dissonant voices,
for a brief flash of reactionary time.

Autonomous passion can behave so loudly,
univocally self-invested,
that Others' passions are no longer heard--
inviting impassioned debate
disinviting dialogue.

When compassion errs,
we are under-powered fragments
fractured from future's long-term opportunities.

Passion shines red-blooded brilliant.
Compassion listens
for cooperative patriotic resilient.

Patriots

Patriots
Are the people
That never
Resort to
Injustice, in the name
Of their country.
They are independent thinkers
Supporting diplomacy, not Malevolence.

Patriots

Patriots
Rolling
Falling
Behind
Never-mind
My dark
Heart’s
Reflecitio0n
In an alternative
Wise of thought

Patriots

Patriots grinding
And throwing the ball
What was said
At beginning is this
Is how champions fall
Not for this year
Brady on the ball

America's Patriots

As we rest weary on our soft beds of air,
Dreaming the DREAMS beyond, mortal compare.
Transversed wars and CONFLICTS, where no others would dare;
Done feats average AMERICANS see in their nightmares.
Carried our country's banners in foreign affairs;
Followed our bravest leaders in all types of warfare.
Saluted America's FLAG and recited the Lord's Prayer;
Never once did we ever falter, lag or despair.
Defeating our enemies on land, sea and air;
FREEDOM for each American - everywhere.

Patriots Cannot Be Caged -Roundabout Poem

These times at hand are volatile,
We need faith and courage!
When Evil reigns,
Let Truth remain-
We need faith and courage!


When Danger enters Freedom's stage,
let men not live in vain!
We take our stand,
fight hand in hand,
let men not live in vain!


Our countries are not for their gain,
they can't control our land.
our freedom steal
with deceit's skill,
they can't control our land.


They come and then they make demands,
whose guile dictates at will.
We can't be caged
by Terror's rage
whose guile dictates at will.
