Free Indeed!

TO THE FOUNDING FATHERS


Your light still lingers in our distant morning,
A star that we perceive across the void.
We chart our passage by your words, still burning
Long after your bright core has been destroyed.
No longer do we speak of "natural" rights,
Nor can we think that Reason guides our will.
We've been through far too many gruesome nights
To hope we have reduced our lust to kill.
Yet hope remains the engine of our fire,
Hope that someday all of us will be
Happy in the least that we require:
Well-fed, well-housed, safe, secure, and free.
This dream we still pursue. Though darkness come,
Your wisdom, hope, and courage through us run.

Happy Independence Day!!

Wanted to tell you where you could get a "Mandiva" t-shirt. Travis Cottrell sells them dirt cheap on his web-site. They're about $4.00-$5.00, I think.
