Can't Undo America!

Christopher Commodore

Rhymed
Can’t Undo America
By Chris Commodore©2007

In liberty and freedom
A homeland pledged to God
One nation indivisible
Can’t undo America

Undaunted armies resolute
Marines and Navies true
Air forces span her spacious skies
Can’t undo America

In hidden nooks and crannies
Attired like old grannies
Explosives in your running shoes
Can’t undo America

Adorned with menacing headbands
Cross burners draped in sheets
Vile cowards, terrorizing clans
Can’t undo America

Home-grown nor foreign terrorists
Nor sadomasochists
Regardless of your bombing plans
Can’t undo America

About this poem

Upon hearing of a bombing attempt by a terrorist on an aircraft bound for the United States.
