Thank you for your service, they say

THANK YOU, FOR YOUR SERVICE, THEY SAY [Pulitzer] Copyright (c), 2024 By Wesley Carroll [Inspired By The Unknown Soldiers, Now Known] Several tours I have served, All for this country and our freedoms, That we want the world to see, That the good life is there, For them all as it is for you and me. I arrived back in the states, And what do I find and see, Something from some: foreign horror movie That looks nothing like the America, That I guess, used to be. Protests to your left, And protests to your right, Kids packing guns, Like pockets full of gum. Single parent households, With no dads in site, Women having, babies, Just to get a welfare check. Criminal judicial system that is a joke, So many innocent filling up the prisons, Just so that some crooked politician, Can get more money for his castrations. Divisions of the police, Actually run by those from overseas, Obviously not born and bred, American citizens. Those who tried to erase our ass, From the planet and history books, Now some how, Have even taken over our farms and cows. *** Page 1. of 2.
