So this Memorial Day is for you, Sergeant Smith. You died in a pointless war, but we here highly resolve that you shall not have died in vain. In your name, we vow that our nation shall have a new birth of freedom. We pledge that we, the people, will reclaim our country. And we swear that we will never again send our brothers off to fight unjustifiable wars.

Agreed

agreed.  &…

today, not tomorrow,

not next week,  next month

or…, godforbid,  in another year

of our deepest mocked sorrows, 2008.

no not once the oop statisticians have served

-up  contemptible numbers  to  the council of war-

crimes & profits r divvied & senators clean their skivvies

load-up the Hueys & the C-130s  & bring them th fck home

no NOW while not one more is dead in th theatre desert storm

plant them [good women & men] here in this soil where their apt

roots are most fervent, let the world have a look at the moot heart

of the matter without the presence of our mighty earthshaking engine

what is there will remain there until there wants, with a passion, to go

and modify there as a means to a change there,  for sake of humanity

with our corporate troops gone,    let the planet see the facts and then

come to some sort of agreement  as to the best course of action,   bro

if not that, than no doubt it’s not about a humanitarian mission,   …but

business, only business, it’s just business, not personal but business, ya

& what sort of business if not monkey-business/money-business, chief?

if our powers that be leave, who next to hold down th oil-fort; conquest?

surely I jest as none could possibly be serious  bout leaving all at shit behind

it’s just too rich a deal to camp-out on oilfields while  constipating any furthering

research towards the ways & means of solar & such alternative energy sources,  sis
