Tears Of The Founders
We've abused our great freedoms
to reap the results
with school and church shootings
hate speech a new cult
No respect for the flag
or sacrifice made
ignoring our veterans
despoiling their graves
Our streets wait in ambush
where the enemy hides
to prowl in a wasteland
where evil decides
The constitution a weapon
to pervert and inflict
traitorous courts
with laws nondescript
And blindly we run
(toward the cliff)
greed our marching song
narcissism the battle cry
-America is gone
(Ardmore Pennsylvania: April, 2023)

And blindly we run
