Faith, Flags, and Freedom

Faith, Flags, and Freedom
Freedom always wins
We who honor it,
Bleed red, blue, and White.
The flag stood bright and tall,
Blowing in the wind.

The enemies of the nation,
Set it ablaze,
With nothing left of it,
But courthouses aflame,
Ashes to ashes,
Endless fragments remain.

Soldiers of Woke Social Justice
Fought their mindless battles
With rocks and baseball bats
Breaking all matter of things.

Antifa Terrorists aren't that brave
Hide in numbers with those
Who claim to march for peace

A deadly inflammation
One lethal human virus
For those that stand for Justice
Throwing Fire Bombs
Even when energetically thrown
Makes you nothing,
But a warring fraction.

All campaigns have sides
All sides have ends,
All ends have beginnings,
All soldiers shall fall.

Light extinguishes in the wilderness
But when battle cries are heard
And the histories are told
Remember without prejudice
Cast all eyes backward for always
Surround not in the love,
Only in the human honor,
Of the basic foundations
Of what everyone did.

They are a reflection of us
And in all of us is all of them
Humanity's children until,
The never-ending end.

Imperfection is human
Learning from excellence,
Means life is priceless
And everyone must understand
Human beings are not colored by color

Looking within others
Is how you see yourself
Knowing when you stand together
Knowing when you stand with yourself

But knowing the difference,
We'll always be able to,
Lift all of our hearts.

Deep down is indifference
A wicked soulless devil
That hollows the pit of our beings.
And tears each one of us apart.
