You ask of me To set them free When submission Is their seed But should I die Amid the lie They want us there Not greed Bruise my soul For lucre's goal And corporate Bottom line Say our flag Will never sag For profit It will shine It's such a fight To sleep at night What cost The ordered deeds Midnight screams Horror scenes Spills blood Of other creeds By force of will I am, here still Praying To my God On one blue moon Standing soon And share A saddened nod mr_alleycat
I really like this poem. It is very easy too read but says a lot. Great work! I especially like the two stanzas above. Keep writing and posting.. Peace, Aidan
