(Vietnam Rants, I learned from coming back from Vietnam where you have to release the demon inside therapy on napkins in order breathe in hope. Some may not understand it, others will find it venting into their own words. The thing is it is time for Iraqi Veterans to rant upon napkins that they depose of or store as nightmares vented, and not commit suicide. They may be the walking wounded of living suicide that still has a piece of America and what it promised Veterans, help. But then Washington also made Katrina promises. Seems the "We the people" were denied by the Bush Corporations that he supported in grand style.) Wounded Vietnam Vet Word Processor (Rant) Vietnam Rants inside therapy venting Free Speech, Wounded Vet Microsoft Word processor coffin box, Words that must be censored canvas - hidden away crashes, Soldiers who character nails the flag upon concrete accountability. That Blackwater need not to happened in spraying bullets, Where Corporate Civilian mercenaries get paid so much more. Bush Rambo’s Bush cowboys, while at home walking wounded Cry from the Iraq/Vietnam neglect of Political wars for profit. Mission Accomplished “Truth” of fabricating Bush war “Lies” in Creative Accounting of No Bid Halliburton bad water tastes. Get rich Republic carpetbaggers filling up body bags billions, Like sand bags protecting a Corporate religion in Katrina profit. Oh, napkin of tear trails pen marks being marched off in a Patriot Act, Why must America’s words mirror those hidden returning coffins? Congress of “Homework” Made in the USA pure political neglect Golden Idols of Political Country Club high fashion statements. Fourth of July of Cheney gas won by our soldiers soul’s graves, Men and women of Washington’s boys and girls laws. Where Vietnam soldiers had more rights as adults to speak out. Today they rotate in and out of Bush Intelligence cycles. Oh wail, Windows of crashing American poetic dreams System of black screams of death covered over cries. Vietnam Vet Memorial of walking wounded crashing down Like flooding Katrina response in Washington compassion. Oh cry yeah, oh cry yeah in patriot acts of pure emotions But one must reside in blank Free Verse in legacy homes Of a War President redefining American Freedom dwellings And the Democracy of a ruling class and a silent working caste. Chevron Cheney’s Mission Accomplished Fourth of July Screwing the masses in inflated price of Bush survival celebrations. Where one must now be outsourced upon slave quarters dwellings Upon chilled air of the American dream, Made in America gone sour. WORD of breakdown torn tears, where printer spooler fail to work Backups are filtered Patriot Act gloomy White House reality cut offs. Where “We the people” are employees of this CEO War President. Who “At Will” uses Executive Privilege of decrees of eminent domain. Bush’s Philadelphia Fourth of July parade that segregates in Having Conservative tickets or a Liberal patriot ban of acceptance. Don’t hire Liberal policy, Guantanamo Conservative Justice Re-segregating America, yet in another travesty of in-equality. America’s Bush redefined Declaration of Independence Incorporated, CEO worldwide Conglomeration of selling off America to the highest bidder. Profit of worldwide manipulation of starving the masses for profit Using grain to feed Big Oil starving coffers of CEO luxury benefits. Tis time for a Bush/Cheney/Microsoft Mission Accomplished cut off affair Where one saves every other WORD, for backups normally fail their duty Much like politicians have failed their “We the people” patriot stockholder. What is this bush disease that wipes off public WORD processed dissent? For safety concern, I learned from being “Terminated for Poetry” Free Speech That this Bush fiction of his treason to silence all American Free Verse That resides in the Hearts of Vietnam ranting nightmare reincarnations of Vietnam haunting Bush Blunders of Civil War quagmire infrastructures. Where American Main Street ghosts mirrors those in Iraqi tears saying, “What kind of hell is this Bush Freedom and Democracy of Abu Graith pictures? David L.

Thanks Marge and Robert, it is important to be able to Rant in Freedom and Democracy even if in today's America. Even if one must be Terminated For Poetry to get it. It seems like returning Iraqi Veterans are being muted and not writings on napkins to get the demons out. They can burn the napkins, it is the process of expunging the darkness within for theraphy. All the Bush Administration wants is to create the next generation of walking wounded. With all the returning Iraqi Vets that are as silent as the returning coffins; hidden away and muted for Mission Accomplished pluses, it seems they are being monitored 24/7. Where are the newspapers in questioning the troops in what is happening over there? Why is there a Patriot Act filter on Iraqi dissent or conversation of pro's and con's of the War. Why, because Bush needs complete silence to hide his Intelligence of fabrications. Afghanistan yes, after Mission Accomplished, no. |
