New Patriots


Anarchy upon us

in less than ten years…

Nothing can stop it

neither hoping nor tears

 

The Founding Father’s

warning to ring…

“Revolution calling”

Jeffersonian brings

 

The mop or the handle

our floor will be cleaned

The face of new patriots

living unseen

 

Blood will be sacrificed

discord to reign

But out of its torrent

—freedom reclaimed

 

(Independence Hall: June, 2022)
