Shawnee Vets
(for America’s original true Veterans) Government of Kings where shall you bide? Now that the Great Horned Serpent has appeared while Thunderbirds screech and lament in desolate skies? Oh great people of Our Grandmother! Amass your island conjure the Turtle retreat upon the seas of your origination. Oh Yakwawi! Hairless Bear Monster safeguard them as they retreat from their once inviolable ground! Shield and embrace them prevent their ruination. The pelts of the Exalted Buffalo could never thwart the wicked deeds Execution Destruction Subjugation of...

Greedy Vets I spend my days with greedy Vets, It is plain for all to see. My vets are very greedy, For their labor there is a fee. Their greed for knowledge is endless. Their greed for answers is clear. Their greed to heal consuming. To fail their biggest fear. Many years of study and toil, It takes to learn the ropes. To one day...

Tribute To Viet Nam Vets
Fifty years ago it began. War in a distant, foreign land. For a decade or more men gallantly served. From devotion to duty they never swerved. From every walk of life they came, Trying a ruthless enemy to tame. Leaving home, family, jobs and friend They served where their beloved country did send. Contrary to many most volunteered. They were not by draft commandeered. They...

With death and bombings all around All he could hear was the children s sounds. With tears in their eyes and not understanding why Why so many bodies on the ground And not a one...
