O AMERICAN WARRIOR

Yes, we are at war and the enemy is closer to us than we realize. In the present war only warriors are prepared to fight the good fight and be victorious. The good news is we were born to be warriors.

O American Warrior fight the good fight,
Fight with hope, faith and love,
Fight for justice for all and equality;
This is your fight,
Only you can win this fight;
O American Warrior fight the good fight,
Fight now, fight on, fight on;
Fight now, fight on, fight on;
Fight now, fight on, fight on.
__________________________
Addendum: on terminology
Some comments on the above poem-song (of approximately fifty words) indicate that some people have misconstrue d an "American Warrior" to mean an American soldier. This is not the case. While most Americans respect and honor our soldiers (and I am a veteran), a soldier and warrior are not the same. In my book, "The Mutuality Warrior," (p. 10) I state: "The Mutuality Warrior functions effectively alone, is self-directed and unlike a soldier, is propelled from within rather than by external forces. A Mutuality Warrior must never be referred to as a soldier or visa versa...". The American Warrior has a philosophy similiar to that held by the Mutuality Warrior, not by a soldier. For a further discussion on this matter read my poem, "Become a Mutuality Warrior," posted on authorsden.com and/or my book "The Mutuality Warrior" by Uriah J. Fields.

Thank you for remembering them!
