Bombs Bursting in Air

Chad R. Herman
Bombs bursting in Air

A gaff tied horse attached to
your right leg
your left leg
your righ breast
your left breast
and the smack on the ass
of the horse ripped you in
2.........2.......4. Each piece

burned and taken on ships
to 4 different parts of the world
and no tomb stone would ever
bear your name -
so says the

laws on treason that every person
who signed that declaration agreed
would happen to them to create
a country of freedom and peace,

America America shed your grace on
thee
and crown they good with

brotherhood

brotherhood

not ....not

rockets glaring red
bombs bursting and killing

our tattered, war torn flag - no
no,

a land worth commiting
treason so that we
can live in peace, harmony
and
brotherhood!
