Fading Fields Of Blue

6.21.2020

 

America’s colors

Forged, tried and true

Fifty white stars

Illuminate a field of blue

And colony stripes

Of red and white

Stacked in alternating hues

 

At millennium turn

Amidst election’s churn

To fill a legend to the map

Of the nation’s political spectrum

The media tied

Colors to the parties two

Republican red

And Democrat blue

 

But take a closer look

While republican red

Blends with the flag’s

Democrat blue

The color lags

A much faded hue

Falls short

Washed out

Against the field of blue

 

Coincidence

Oh, I think not

Only one shade of blue

The American flag’s got

And does dem blue match

No, it does not

 

But it matches how they’ve tried

To change our colors

 

To remove justice from

The field of blue

To leave freedom but

A washed out hue

 

It is clear with every message sent

It is clear, their actions, their intent

Though they’ve yet succeeded

They are hell-bent

To change our colors

America’s colors

To a washed out palette 

Socialist bent

 

So come November

Vote red

Vote true

To keep our flag

True freedom’s hue

 

Don’t change America’s field of blue

To their party color’s washed out hue

Their thoughts to pillage

Fields of blue

Only reflect how they

Are washed up too

 

Their every action

Their every inaction

Supports it too

My face reflects

Republican red

In anger of what

They intend to do

Wash freedom’s fields

Of freedom blue

 

Act now

Act American now

To do nothing will not do

For to do nothing

To be complacent

Is to be complicit to

The fading of our freedom

As they fade us democrat blue

Stars dim in fading fields of blue

Say no to fading fields of blue
