A twist of irony
We watched war on TV
Ratings soared through the roof
When Desert Storm arrived
Baghdad crumbled quickly
Live
Without a net
Tired ass SCUD Missiles
Hardly WMD’s
Low tech bottle Rockets
Feebly aimed at Zion
Orchestrated blitz
Media manipulation
Pentagon exploitation
Shrill battle cry
A stick in the eye
To modern day Babylon
By the George W. Bush nation
Sandbox liberation
Designed to crush tyranny
“OH SAY CAN YOU”…….
Yes GOP
We see
In digital HD
Clandestine Intel disconnects
Playing card villains
Three ring circus theme
Global disrespect
As Saddams’ Gallows Pole
Damn near severed his head
From his evil Dictator neck
Never to forget
We financed said insurgency
To suit our greedy needs
Oilfield evil seed
Green Zone 50 yard line
Kurds
Shiites
Sunnis
We offered “Stable Democracy”
Shadow hypocrisy
C.I. Fucking A
Independence Day
American treasure
Politicians sway
Black Gold benefits
Assassination hits
Greenpeace
Doesn’t give a shit
Me
I understand
Secret Council Disneyland
“High Value Targets”
Video Game sales
As I watched the freak show carnage
Somber “Game Face” on
Complexities
Inherent with Jihad
Not many Joe Q. Citizens
Consider martyrdom odd
In the end
It’s all about honor
Maintaining integrity
At all cost
As our world wanders lost
Lines forever crossed……
