I Am The American Eagle

 

I am the American Eagle

with a broken right Republican wing,

and a broken left Democrat wing,

its "We the people" body tattered and torn.

It needs pledges of help

to its God Bless America body,

for the Eagle spirit to heal.

 

Its 10% White Collar head

has lost control of its 90%

Blue Collar welfare soul.

For the American Eagle

to become strong,

we must quit

outsourcing its welfare

and unite with its talons

saying NUTS

Never Under Tyranny Surrender

the American Eagle spirit

that unites this nation.

 

That America is not 10%

but 100%,

where elected officials

need to be 100%

not 10%.

That we do not need

economic morticians

but 100%

American eagle POLITICIANS,

who are not bickering

 Republicans

 and/or

Democrats

but 100%

Americans.

 

"I pledge allegiance

to the flag of

the United States of America,

and to the republic

for which it stands,

one nation under God,

indivisible, with liberty

and justice for all."

 

Feel these words reach deep inside America,

It is not a pledge to Demigod

Republicans and Democrats,

Nor is it to Wall St or Private Equity.

It diversity is not just

Conservative, Progressive, Liberal

Or Moderate or Independent,

Rich, poor,

It is even homeless.

 

Swiss bank accounts,

Overseas tax havens,

It is about investing in America

That we now need 100% pledges

For the American Eagle NUTS talons,

Never Under Tyranny Surrender

Our American 100% heritage

 to the future of our children.

So the eaglets can fly

with both wings.

For this country to survive, we must first and foremost act like Americans and then afterwards we can choose which side that we want to be on.

Ditto what Ron said. We need seperation of church and stat, otherwise, This was excellent.

The "under God," was added by the Republicans in the 1950s. The founding fathers separating church and state on purpose because they feared control of government by religious influence like the Church of England. Otherwise, I really like the tenor of this poem, basically that our government should be for all of the people, all the time.

Now that peice of writing is classic. Every line in it jumped into my body and mind. THIS one spoke loud and clear to the world.

I wish we all could live as one nation under God for the greater good of the country.
