THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE
~THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE~
A SALUTE TO MONDEGREENS* AND KINDERGARTENS EVERYWHERE
"I led the pigeons to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for witches dance, one nation, under God, invisible, with liver tea and just for us all."
*Mondegreens-“A mondegreen is a mishearing or misinterpretation of a phrase in a way that gives it a new meaning.
"What is said and what is heard can easily be misunderstood.”
