"Feel free to share"

OK, I will at that. From Sundance Cracker @ HillBuzz:

Listen my children and ye shall hear,
the consequence of irrational fear.

On Two November Twenty Ten
many a patriot listened then,
and rose to state their feeling great
upon our nations looming fate.

For the darkest hour was brought to bear
upon us all with a down nosed stare.
The house we rent with great esteem
afforded to a false prophet and dream.

Many trusted “Hope and Change”
but gained they naught but hoax and chains.
Bestowed upon a victors guise
lay claim – false witness, fears and lies.

Our nations pride was victimized,
media provided the grand disguise.
We lulled to sleep and over looked
the keys beholden to the crook.

The “Hill” it took the treasure swift,
casting our nation fast adrift.
The brave stepped forth to raise the alarm,
'cross every township, village and farm.

“Behold” they shouted brave and true
A call to arms for me and you.
The growing seeds of brave despair,
patriotic voices everwhere.

“To arms”, “to arms”, was soon the call
not with a pistol, but toward the fall.
For November's season was tasked to change,
regain our sense from Hoax and Chains.

Steadfastly we took back the house,
Handcuffed we made the renters louse.
With quick dispatch we pulled the handle
returning sense to our nations mantle.

Never again shall we permit
our national pride to take a hit.
For we have learned a lesson hard,
our treasury is more than a credit card.

The Muse is strong with this one.
