The new pledge

by resisting reason   Nov 8, 2007


Fifty stars
thirteen stripes
one nation under god
Millions scarred
Millions died
But only one fraud
Soldiers marching through the streets
Soldiers dying on their feet
Brothers and sisters fighting for an unknown cause
Because
The fraud is flawed
And his bogus laws
Just don'twork
And behind that ignorant little smirk
Lies a boy
Who vowed
To make his father proud
So as he sends them to fight
And to die
he comforts the crying mothers with a smile
All the while
They continue to march in single file
Being blown up or shot
Left to rot
Or severely injured and maimed
To many to be named
And who's to be blamed?
We were under attack
They say
We had had to fight back
This day
We stand
For one nation under god
Indivisible
With liberty
And justice
For us
