Subject:  Just wanted to share.

I wrote this today and just wanted to share it. To those who support the war, this is what they stand for.

 

 

I pledge allegiance
To war
And pestilence in America
And to the destruction
That we will cause
If we act like bullies
And destroy countries
That have done nothing to us.

 

I pledge allegiance,
Albeit blind,
To a massive government
That doesn't demonstrate
The ability to ration or think.

 

I pledge allegiance
To a military
That answers the call of duty
By severing the limbs
Of innocent civilians
In a foreign land
All to get to one person.

 

I pledge allegiance to a man
Who in his finest hour
Showed us he is drunk with power
And to his warmongering
Which will allow us to be
The greatest country in the global economy.

 

I pledge allegiance to more 911's
And to the destruction of my American family
All because
We led the war for oil
That allows us to run
Electricity
And our massive SUVs.

 

I pledge allegiance to death
All because I didn't protest
This asinine war on Iraq
And now
Because of George Bush
We have set the stage
For World War Three
All in the name of Lady Liberty!
