Independent Independence

Independence Day
hooray for the red
white and blew ...
the wind forms gales
faster than sound
slower than light
why should we feel
as though we are not
controlled, when to give
simple suggestion
begets dogmatic experience
those who know better
pretend independence
means other than self reliance
XXX we the people
XXX in order to form
XXX more perfect union
XXX establish justice
XXX ensure domestic tranquility
XXX provide common defense
XXX promote gerneral welfare
XXX ordain and establish
a fiction that has lasted
two hundred thirty years
how, how, how, how, how?
when we the people
assume responsibility
to act in self-interest
to independently restore
honor, truth and trust
exchange integrity with value
without the overcaste
of disharmonic faux seers
as congress would have us
think we owe allegiance
to some silly gold rimmed flag
