Twelve Score And Nine

by David Lester Young — Read all 1,103 poems by David Lester Young

Will HATE destroy this nation We The People inherited and Our Children's Future, within Democrat/Republican repulsive fractional division?

Can We look back at Republican President Lincoln Gettysburg Address and get Our ACT Together for Our children's sake.

Twelve Score And Nine

American Miracle’s
Red White And Blue
Has fluttered for
Twelve Score And Nine
Thirteen stars then,
fifty stars shine now
We The People birthrights
being passed down
As Our Children future
inherit Our Constitution

Eight Score And One
Republican President Lincoln
Stated after Civil War
fractions divided US apart
That this Country must
unite together in harmony
That we are an American
family first and foremost
Twelve Score and Nine
WE The People
Be challenged again

Twelve Score And Nine,
Our Military and Our Veterans
Have fought to keep Civil strife
from dividing US within
Conservative/Liberal
Confederate/Union
Political Hate
That America’s
Trilogy of Lady Justice
must be balanced
In Judicial, Executive,
and Representative branches

Will Twelve Score and Ten
be come the end of
Eight Score and One
Gettysburg Address statue  
Twelve Score And Nine
Founding Fathers Trilogy

 


Reclaiming DD “David”

Your poem is spot on. The imbalance in the checks and balance created by the Constitution and our founding fathers is very disturbing. The government currently does not represent the people as a whole, but the rich and influential.

While the higher ranking military are doing quite well, most veterans, especially disabled ones, are not. The capitalistic way of doing government means that the low hanging fruit will be taken care of first and the harder to do, like treating veterans with PTSD to give them a better life, the disabled and the poor for whatever reason, will be cut back or neglected. This is known as cost-saving, so that profits can be reaped and shared with wealthy stockholders and board members.

The imbalance in government has gradually turned back time to a more oppressive form of living in the United States. The only freedom remaining is the freedom to make money and have fewer and lower taxes. But the people that need help the most are those who don't make enough money to pay taxes. In the state of Texas, poor people pay sales tax on every basic need while the wealthy do not have to pay any income tax at all.

A very good and educational poem of Americas history,and also concern for its future is delicately woven into the last verse ✌
