National Anthem Prayer Service
Let US Americans, kneel in prayer,
As our National Anthem is played.
That those who served and died,
Be remembered United in our faith.
Let us bow, to our National Anthem.
Where our anthem must be made whole,
To unite US as this nation of great diversity
Where a poem flutters in genuflect reflections.
One can, take a knee, or knees in divine hope.
It is not a criminal act, of Civil Liberty defiance.
Just as America stood up to the British power,
America must be allowed, to kneel free spirited.
To use a national Anthem to divide US,
Is morally reprehensible degradation act.
One can look back, to stiff arm, Bellamy salutes
That were once required to face our flag.
Some people call it a Nazi salute, but alas,
Germany acquired it from American values.
That salute stood for wealth’s white power
Which ruled that one had to obey - their law.
Laws that made blacks, others - second class
That immigrants were these labor animal castes.
Where pure political power, did trump the poor.
Wherein America was this segregated society.
Look back, when politicians demanded a salute.
That all races had to use it, with our Pledge.
Where people, were made, to respect status quo
That every totalitarian government - demands.
There are leaders, who mandate, the National Anthem.
But, is it not poetry To Be an indivisible, individual right?
When a Party demands capitulation, shall we stand, or kneel?
Do WE ask God, please make idiot idols, love ALL Americans.
In America, the Capital T towers control amidst electoral power.
But no one, should be allowed, to trump their brand upon America.
Where somehow, someway the National Anthem is all about them.
That they will attend an NFL game to get an adoring fan base stand.
To get that trump crowd, despots do need to get validated as Putin.
