stars and stripes(Arnold Melleby, 10.17.2020)

 the death of a dream

awoken by nightmares 

will it ever come to life again

no one knows


mango madness

all year around

no way around it

came and went


divided we stand

with no tears to spare

if there ever was a care

the time is now


words of venom

blowing ears wide open

of the narrowness

to the clown in charge 


stars and stripes

once ruling the sky

pushing the next generation

in front of the one before

to a common goal for all

to dream even longer and wider 

stars and stripes

shine no more


words of venom

blowing ears wide open

of the narrowness

to the clown in charge 



stars and stripes

once ruling the sky

pushing the next generation

in front of the one before

to a common goal for all

to dream even longer and wider 

stars and stripes

shine no more


stars and stripes
