himes

Another rebel army marches to its feet
All residents of neighbor states
Deciding their own fete
I've counted scores. None rich, none old,
None tuning in tonight.
Another rebel army
Gathers strength against the gate
History consumes struggles marked in red and white
Wrought crudely undertakings form
Idyllic and irate
Oh some will bleed and some will die
All will fade to mem'ry
As present states of affairs
Foreclose, control, and placate.
Another rebel army
American replete.
