never give up.jpg

close the door

there are no more

greater gifts and hopes

because truthfully we are not dopes

life is worth the fight

life is bringing on the right

to be free to be you and me

gifts with strings and hopes that bring

a tie to bind you and me

no thank thee

i will live without your handouts

i will thrive with my pride

i will die untethered to your contracts

my country will smile and be lightened

because i am not frightened

by any radical ideas

and like John Adams said about our constitution

it was meant for moral religious people

we have no equal. amen.
