Bright eyed children
waving flags
drinking lemonade
cower at the sound
of fireworks
in the sky
Bright eyed children
waving slingshots
drinking polluted water
cower at the sound
of bombs
falling from the sky
Baseball, Disneyland
corporate poison
Freedom, Democracy
corporate poison
dreams of being a soldier
at four years old
dreams of killing a soldier
at four years old
I learned a new word today
I learned a new escape route today
Mother and Father
embracing
light sparklers
and tightly hold it in my hand
Mother is dead
and Father missing
left me embracing artilery
and tightly hold it in my hand
I pledge alligience
to the flag
of the United States of America
I plede alligience
to the insurgency
which spawn
when we were
invaded by the United States of America
Not so happy, this fourth of July
