Kate's Law

Kate's Law

I had a dream like
Martin Luther King.
Where I lived in aĀ 
sovereign nation.

My children could play
in the streets each day,
without fear from an
alien gunman.

But the people slept
as base henchmen crept,
into office'sĀ 
meant for our leaders.

Blind sheep awaken
retake our nation,
cause right now we're just
tax paying breeders.

It ought not to be
that our citizenry,
has little to doĀ 
for our protection.

That criminals walk
since the dead can't talk,
and lawyers practice
racist deflection.
