Star Spangled Anger

Oh say did you see

All my neighbor's delight

When he proudly displayed

That he went there just to fight

Who inflicted deep scars

Due to words of rich fools

How they influenced all

By breaking all the rules

See their eyes with red glare

Sow their lies and fanfare

Gave proof through the night

That our hate was still there

Oh say does that star spangled

Star Spangled Banner

Since I was a small child and would try to sing,
when we rise and sing the praises of "Old Glory,"
it brings tears to my eyes. Maybe it's because we
have endured much to keep our flag flying--too
many wars, too many injured, too many dead.
Or, perhaps, in this "Winter of Our Discontent,"*
whether Red or blue or neutral

Star-Spangled Show

Stars staged their night show
Soon as stepped in from window,
My sleep watched in awe.

Star Spangled Banter

The Private caressed his balls out of action during the short ceasefire

the Army had scanned him for testosterone because they needed a killer

He bit into a Milky Way as he cradled his crotch to get ready for the fight

his Universe had become conquest for a medal or a bow to his member

he was an intelligent

Star Spangled Despair

While you were all sleeping..
I crept in through your back door.
You were off in la la land..
While I silently started a war!

Your "Star Spangled Banner." 
Says "Land of the Free".
Wheres "United" America?  
You could of fooled me!

It then goes on to say..
America home of the brave!
But all I've seen is fear.. 
In the way

Spangled Star Banners

Oh say, did you notice
a national predative anthem?
Moving immediately
urgently,
without reflection of starlight 
sent or received,

From waving flags predicting elite weapons
fueled by complexly masculine 
emasculating
militarized corporate industries
of mutual defensive risks
against international cooperative opportunities
to coinvest

In smoke-filled dawns of manifest destiny
toward freedom for all
self-righteous straight white males
especially with a divine right
as Earth's owners of enslaved 
exploited property,
and home

Star-Spangled Pilgrim

There once was a lad named Cy Milgram
A regular cool and hip pilgrim --
   He saw Plymouth 'Rock'
   Said, "Fast forward the clock!" --
Played Jimi Hendrix ~ nearly killed 'em

Spangled Flavours

Way back in my childhood days
used to love real favourite sweet
they were hard boiled fruit flavours
real refreshing they were to eat

Mars Limited in UK made them
having many flavours totally nine
strawberry, orange lemon naming a few
but my favourite was simply lime

They had a real good tasty bite
but sucking them made them last
so the flavour lasted real

Yes, the Star-Spangled Banner Still Waves

Francis Scott Key: 
“O say, does that Star - Spangled Banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?”

The Answer:

Yes, Mr. Key, the Star - Spangled Banner still waves
Over that magical land expansive oceans away.
True, its residents are as free as after McHenry
And have remained foes of the tyranny’s sway.

Star Spangled

Here I am darling 
at the center 
of my everything,
gazing over a lake
looking upon 
silver stars lovingly
dancing inside ripples.

Sparkling in 
a moving mass
kisses gently ,
touching deep waters,
blinking diamond thoughts
upon a moon face,
reflections flooding 
through the mind 
every last one shines
sweetly on 
you my love.

The Star-Spangled Glory

As the star-spangled glory,
Flies proud and grand,
With the home of the brave,
Though hill scattered lands,

With the star-spangled banner,
Gleaming o’er the shore
As the noble eagle
Stretches and soars

And the flag flies brilliant,
By mountains high,
As the crop fields spread,
Beneath won’drous blue skies.

The Star Spangled Journey

I am dancing on the edge of time,
Barefoot I tread a razor of light.
There is no time to vanquish my soul,
No place can be walked like this. 

An obsession has taken root,
In this mind it grows from strength.
The burn is a sting from a scorpion,
Its fire the very source of life itself. 

The light will
