I am confused about where
our priorities lie,
as far as who needs
to have what now,
or who should be put
at the head of the line.
We see people living
on the streets,
with no shelter nor home
to call their own,
yet grown men
who are over paid,
to play a game of baseball,
have the nerve to whine.
And now I see the headlines,
that remind me of another war,
where the threat to our freedom
was never really clear,
but clearly now a big mistake.
To put just one person
in harms way,
to attempt to take down,
just one man, one dictator,
is now and will always be,
too big of a sacrifice to make.

but there will always be sacrifices in freedom's name. without them, then the threats we don't see and will never know even existed, would keep us from that freedom. I am glad that there are people out there who fight for our freedom... do you really believe that it's to big a sacrifice to make?
