Wake Up Wake up! We have discovered something big. Wake up You’re next The minions of travesty are on the move They hold your fortune in their hands Like playing cards. You get a flag, you get a flag Everybody gets a flag You’ll wind up with someone else’s flag And you won’t even know it. You’ll fall for it again And ask everyone to imagine your surprise How could you have known Why didn’t anyone warn you? There you will be in your defending All the flags going to mush The cards all tattered and torn Everything missing pieces Winding up at yard sales Three for a dollar. Leftover remnants blowing down the street Caught up in trees Carried off by waterfowl Heading for the sea. - 2022

Another masterful piece!
"You’ll wind up with someone else’s flag
And you won’t even know it."
I love this.
