last vestige of a crumbling empire

last vestige of a crumbling empire

A Poem by delapruch
"

na.

"

mr. panetta wants the world to know

that the big bully’s gonna finish his last

doughnut &

parade with baton in hand

to the asia-pacific,

where now, he can stand as intimidating as he can

muster,

overlooking the rise of China’s economy &

military,

amidst his own crumbling interior,

with both a domestic population whose pockets are

empty &

the military stretched all over the world to

account for it,

it’s only a matter of time before the complete

irrelevance of the

big bad boogeyman

comes to a hilt---

when mr. panetta tells us all via numerous screens

that the movement of the majority of US warships to

China’s backyard

is for any reason besides the last attempt to

flex the droopy american muscles,

an american citizen has to wonder just how bad

mr. hope & change wants to leave us

when he exits in 2016---

is he trying to top mr. dubya?

who would have thought that was even possible

when people were crying 4 years ago in the streets

over his win against mccain? 

 

nothing makes enemies quicker than

trying to assert force when there was nothing to

instigate it---

great job leon,

great job mr. hope & change---

from one citizen of the empire, right

backatcha.
