The Eyes of Texas

all of

America’s

gubmint hatin

yahoos, pining

to get their

country back,

should grab

yer rifles, stock

up on ammo

and giddy up

down  to Texas

to join the

secessionists

headin out

of the Union

 

Rick Perry

promises to

keep his promise

to close all the

gubmint departments

he can't remember

the names of

 

Ron Paul will

finally be liberated

from the tyranny

of his federal

paycheck and

can return to

his district to

practice medicine

unencumbered

by the acceptance

of medicare

payments

 

Ted Cruz will

move to coronate

his Cuban born

daddy as Viceroy

for life of the

western hemispheres

newest banana

republic

 

the last act of

of the Compartment

of Education will be

to turn every

public school

into a Holy Ghostin

Jehovah meetin

house

 

Judicial magistrates

will criminalize

poor people

or just make

them slaves

and all prisons

will be turned

into profit driven

plantations,

overseen by

the local

Sheriffs who

will be paid

time and a

half and 15%

of all profits

 

unfortunately

the Cowboy’s

will lose it’s

moniker as

America’s Team

if rattlesnake

booted

Jerry Jones

can’t make a

deal to turn

his stadium

into a sovereign

independent

territory as a

protectorate

of the USA

 

To assure

national purity

Texans will

build a Jericho

style wall to

define the boundaries

of their heavenly

kingdom and outlaw

all trumpet playing

within earshot

of their perturbed

borders

 

The Eyes of

Texas as the

state anthem

will need to

be reworded

The final stanza

will be changed

to "Until Gabriel

blows his nose"

 

keepin the ungodly

out and the chosen

people safely

insulated within

the shining

Lone Star State

will rise again

as a solitary

confederacy

of dunces

The Eyes of Texas

11/19/13 marks the 150th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address... to hold the article of freedom in such disdain sickens me...
