Poem of The Patriot


Allegiant pledges repeated faithfully

Tongue’s words dropping amidst the dust

Falter and wither useless blatantly

Respect’s honor paid in worthless coins of rust

-

Erect and standing before Glory’s’ garment

Hues wither inside mind’s eye

Adapted feeble exposed Old varmint

Bolshie pigment now diminished red dye

-

 

Fathers’ beginnings meager yet strong

To pull from churning sea’s thickened mire

Leave life and happiness where you don’t belong

Settle inside forest’s green-dark attire

-

 

Crimson backs march straight through your plots

Trampling plants throughout their wake

Discard your plow forget all your crops

Don on your musket for liberty’s sake

-

 

One if by land, two if by sea

Parson’s devious nighttime disguise

 Lobsters are coming so protest your tea

Throw overboard then chant your reprise

-

Ringing constant throughout halls’ bulwarks

Echoes from cannons refreshing your fear

Take back reminisces’ which congest through your ramparts

The Flag still flies and your triumph lies near

-

Plodding across parched scourge of the desert

Tribulation of land’s dead hostility

Blade of your scythes split cracks and dry dirt

Spring’s leaf bounds from hard worked fertility

-

Red-skinned invasions of the scalping robbing savage

In swarms, they plunder colonies in hostility

Crushing and slaughter, everything they ravage

Indignant you start again in humility

-

Shouts and cries ring from parched dry lips

Colors unliberated, fight desperately for independence

Severed ties cut by Belief’s razor strip

Union seams of Honest’s gentle transcendence

-

Bread Basket lies empty, hollow and bare

Recession’s grim hopelessness remains

You drown in debt, your belongings stripped bare

Your life’s work vanished and drained despite all your pains

-

Johnny get your Wesson gun

Skirmish strong with Doughboy pride

Trenches with plagues, soldiers lie, stunned

Bury your dead, those with whom you did confide

-

Armor rattles with each calibered shot

Uncle insists you join in his plight

Assist Winston’s residents, those whom you know not

Fields of white, crucifix’s scatter from blood-bought fight

-

 

Your brothers protest your reasons for “peace”

War and love cannot coexist

Worthless your blood lies on oriental streets

Fought on all sides, death you were unable to resist

-

Administration of corrupt authority

Leadership is crooked and inept

The peoples’s cries only result in minority

Presidential regime of tyrannical debt

-

 

Freedom has expensive worth

Costs shan’t amount to her consequence

Rejoice to dwell on sacrifice bought earth

And bestow to your fathers thankful recompense

-

I may disapprove of what you chatter

But will defend to my death your right of voice

Freedom isn’t free, her expensive cost does matter

But don’t say it liberates any ludicrous choice

-

 

I pledge my allegiance to the Flag

Of the United States of Freedomland

True to the republic for which it stands

Indivisible and held by the Just King’s hand
