At Any Cost
Symptomatic folly,
the tail now wags the dog
Whose bark, it whimper's drolly,
all teeth removed and gone
Reacting, never acting,
new victims every day
All courage has retracted,
-the future in harms way
Jailed speech unto the warden,
whose words may not contend
Our patriotic burden,
its truth we must defend
With cowards grabbing power,
a swamp that we must cross
Lies from ivory towers,
-to fell at any cost
(Villanova Pennsylvania: January, 2017)

whose words may not contend
Our patriotic burden,
its truth we must defend
With cowards grabbing power,
a swamp that we must cross
Lies from ivory towers,
-to fell at any cost
