War clouds overhead
thousands of our people
set to battle
some will not return
casualties of war...
might be my friend
your brother
sister
father
mother
yet war won't just be overseas
but our own backyard
will become a battlefield
wondering if the bus full of folks
will be blown up
has homeland security
checked the miles & miles
or railroad tracks for explosives
or have we become so confident
in our own sense of superiority
that we figure they wouldn't dare?
tell that to Osama...
meanwhile
outbreak
of new disease
coinciding with war plans...
coincidence?
hmmmm
Saddam's back is against the wall
do we expect him to go down
without a fight?
would you????
he's cornered
what has he got to lose?
cause he know we gonna take him out
if we get half the chance
finish what we didn't when daddy bush was around
terrorist community
just waiting for us to throw the first punch
and then the martyrs will be coming out of nowhere
you know those folks you been working with
going to lunch with
laughing and sharing with
sleepers they're called
but wake up call is soon to come
and they're prepared to die
are we?
has the powers that be even examined that question?
why do we who never enlisted in the military
have to become targets
while they that make plans will be whisked away on Jumbo Jets
and private underground bunkers
while the rest of us
just make it the best way we can?
our own fault
we put him in
or actually
it was a coup
is that the politically correct way to say
that certainfolkswhoshallremainnamelessforfearofhomeland security
Jacked an election?
we can't lose they say
but they haven't looked into the eyes of the cornered animal
the prey that they seek
just became the most dangerous prey they could have ever imagined.
