Rest Stop of Babel

Faketriot

Sprung from tombs of anachronism Fertilized in forefather’s pride The stench of spoiled patriotism Permeates from deep down inside Spangled head to toe in bloodstain The colors of idolized years Cloaked in the shroud of their disdain Are Faketriot’s impotent fears The waving flag of hypocrisy Sewn from fabric of our common shame Bears theContinue reading “Faketriot”
