Memorial Day

I'll stand the gaff tonight,
But these perfidious motions constrict breath in breast,
Ephemerous songs of patriotism it's not,
The 80's anymore that masquerade was run with broomstick,
All this convenience is someone else's sacrifice,
Call them infidels and hussies,
Well learned are stereotypes,
While we play gadabouts and royalty, oh how we love the living dead,
Let the conversation lead to bed, with the wine upside your head,
Exclaiming rape and screaming murder,
But the truth will leak from pen,
Exclaiming rape and screaming murder,
Bristling sharp and bristling red,
Metal coffins taking flight lost in an ocher line of sight,
Oh how majestic it's to love a memory,
Blood crying from the dust a country lost in lust,
Oh mother how I love you so,
Hope your birthday is so wonderful,
Despite the fact that I cannot be there,
The military pension will take my place,

This is where the party starts,

Right.
