When America was held for ransom.

When America was held for ransom.

A Poem by andrew mitchell

When America was held for ransom.
When the heroes 
of yesterday
have hung up their guns;
Blondie, Dirty Harry, Shane,
Duke, US Marshal John Travers.
Jack Murphy, Paul Kersey,
Harmonica, and George Armstrong Custer.
to name a few,
someone forgot to tell
today's America;
it's over now, 
done and dusted.
But the killings continue,
Live!
