    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

    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
