21-Gun Solution

See Spot.

See Spot run.

See Spot run for office,

only to be cut down by his own projects.

No conspiracy theories

on what appeared to be.

It was his own brothers

that didn't want him taken out by those outside of the community

so the final sign of unity?

Mutiny.

See Spot cease

And die for his beliefs.

He's smarter than a martyr,

Pleabargaining to police

For his life,

"Please,

Don't let my wife see"

But they invite her politely

and her eyes see

her husband a pipe dream

said pipe beats

the rest of his life out till Spot breathes...

See Spot go to war for a whore

Called America

Who loves the taste of oil so much

that she summons those who are under her census list

to fetch a sip overseas...

See Spot in handcuffs

similar to chains

worn in Africa

he's a passenger on a passage again

He envisions a vaseline jar

big enough for the world to fit in

So America can whet her addiction anytime

plenty fine crude to brood over

But not enough dreams could keep Spot alive much longer

See Spot massacred

on the way back from Iraq

mission accomplished

excpept insurgents want some soldiers kidnapped

His kids back home

watch the closed-circuit broadcast

of two soldiers

gasping for air under sacks made of burlap

See Spot never make a sound or a cry

as the gun hammer cocks by his temple

watch his organs fly

thoughts displayed

as his orphans watch

A small price to pay

For the goal to open up world democracy

or force down their throats

See Spot die again and again

Till the flag is free of spots...
