NFL Vow to America;

TO KNEEL, BOW-DOWN, & COWER

There’s a Filth that stains America, though they pretend to be “our” team(s),

They pretend their noble, brave, and, bold, but their falsehood can be seen.

They know of only selfish Greed, and riches few will know,

but now with hatred upon one’s knee, it’s punishment they shall Sow.

In Uniforms with varied colors, to “represent” a bountiful USA,

they kneel in total disrespect, for the Anthem that we Play.

This Anthem Played is Not for us, nor for all our future days,

but Played for Veterans who cannot attend,…. it’s for us their Lives they Gave.

To Shame those gone ,so you can “Moan” for something disconnected,

exposes true your uncaring Soul, for those who gave to keep US all Protected.

To Abuse that which protects you, and preserves your way-of-Life,

should return to you the Peoples Wrath, for, Disrespect cuts thru us like a Knife.

Teams of Men who play a Children’s game, think they Merit “God-Like” servitude,

When all they’ve shown, is their Uncaring skills, along with Hateful Attitude.

To Hide behind Free Speech abused, and claim that it’s your “Right”,

Exposes that you work for Cowards, who you have coerced into a Fright.

To sell one’s Soul, to reach your “goal”, by Offending Memories of our Dead,

Reveals your Hatred for all others, as Only what matters onto you instead.

The Sickening Support by America’s Betrayers,……. who are called the NFL,

I ask of you,…..Rhyme this thought, and spell, as America wishes you, ALL to H_ _ _

Veterans Vow to America;

TO NEVER KNEEL, BOW-DOWN, OR COWER;

There is a Team that we should all observe, with unswerving Courage they have served,

No kneeling, bowing, or shades of Fear, they guide our future, holding each Life dear.

They never tried to harm us, with acts of Anger / Hate, or Disrespect,

For a real Team only represents, and hopes they give, what you expect.

Though sometimes they’re forgotten, and sometimes treated Wrong,

They still believe their America’s Team, and will stand for America’s song.

Americans need to decide this time, and Judge what’s Wrong or Right,

Do you wish for malcontents,…of Hate,…or a Team that protects us through each night.

Does a moments “Entertainment” mean more then the joy of Freedoms ring??

Does worthy respect for Veterans, Deserve a moment, for an Anthem that we sing?

It’s time to say which Team you wish , that will stand by you each day

Those who “Force” their Hate on you, or those who keep that Hate-Away.

When the dust is past, and you visions clear, and you see the Truth that’s Now

Betrayers kneel for selfish goals, Veterans stand Tall, beholden to their Vow.

Be it on a Veterans Day, or Memorial that we observe,

Regardless of who you think you are, it’s for You that they have served.

So ALL please stand, and search your Soul , for all that we achieve,

A show of Disrespect to Veterans, shows it’s only you that you Deceive.
