in the spirit
of the founding fathers
we vote freedom liberty
with the vital breath
of our entire being

in time tested spirit
of founding fathers
we vote freedom liberty

with vital breath
of our entire being
cock our hats at true

traitors to freedom
who snippet at civic
liberties freedom of speech

Terence G. Craddock (afterglows echoes of starlight)
