A State Of The Union View

Come, take us to our morning
where we shine
and take us to the twilight
of our time
where we believe the lies
left behind
that deceive even us.

And show us the folly
of our jest
where we are the cream
of the best
with rose colored glasses,
jackets and vests
that deceive even us.

Now, show us the reality
of our world
where we march headlong
flags unfurled
into the jaws of the lion
whose lips are curled
to devour even us.


"Blind faith in your leaders or in anything will get you killed." Bruce Springsteen
