Barbed Wire and Flowers
Jetplane trails and rainbows
decorate the skies
Blink and you might miss
hell’s angels flying by
Dragons without wings
World without a soul
Hate that knows no bounds
Love that’s growing cold
All hail the conquering nation
Long live the mighty dollar
God forbid a moment’s compassion
for a lonely starving child!
Barbed wire and flowers,
opposites attract
Beauty wed the Beast,
all while Satan laughed.

This was the landscape beside the English Air Force base where I spent a year of my life in the mid 1980s (before the AF and I parted ways, due to a minor disagreement over the existence of nuclear weapons).

Billions in stimulus to corporate america, but for the american people a debate is needed for two thousand dollars. A corporation is a private entity, it either succeeds or fails. People that once stuck their noses up in the air at those in food lines now join them in line. Hahaha, tight piece dude

Beautiful wording man, I love the perspective.
