history rewound
Not lynched
this time
blue/gray coated musketeer
armed at the ready
Not chased
hounded thru swamps
nor sold on line
Concrete jungles leading
rubber roads to dismal dumps
Not violated
tonight
Protected by sheepskin
granted in hallows
Not lumped in clumps
this time
tho stumped by chumps
Again
The past once gone
crossed times horizon
lighting fires believed extinguished
with blood of ghostly granddads
thought calmed by progress moving
to future terrain
uninhabited by tricky trolls and their treacherous followers
waving banners bleached by hate
preached to the pointy headed white-clad choir
hailing opposites
to each his own
Not sullied
