Dark clouds hover high above, as tyrants plot to destroy
This sacred land of which American Patriots love…
War vets who bravely answered their beloved country’s call,
Are now denied entrance to THEIR gallantly earned statues and memorial walls…
Arrogant politicians insolently forget,
This great country owes an enormous debt of gratitude to her military Vets…
Fading away slowly with age, WWII’s once young men should be highly revered,
Until they’re honorably laid to rest in a hero’s grave…
They are the U.S. Marines, who fought valiantly hand to hand,
Destroying our enemies on hostile blood soaked foreign sand…
They’re Soldiers, who landed on the beaches of Normandy,
Charging forward amid lifeless fallen comrades, to keep our country free…
They’re Seamen, who pounded their targets nonstop with bombs of fury…
And Airmen, who flew dangerous missions upon silver wings of glory…
The generations more recently, who fought in Korea and Vietnam…
Securing freedom as an inheritance to America’s future children…
The younger vets of Iraq, Afghanistan too…
Deserve better treatment than they receive from haughty political fools…
Shame on you Mr. President and your sycophant disrespectful cronies!
To these heroic men and women, you’re ALL nothing but greedy lying phonies!
They are the ones, who have unselfishly sacrificed flesh and bone,
While you sit comfortably upon your sanctimonious bloody White House throne!
Some may be feeble, tired and old, but they still have a fire
Burning deep within their virtuous soul…
Mr. President, remove the barriers, open the gates, and let them pass,
Before they storm your gates of spite like yesteryear’s battles,
And embarrass your anti-American ass!
