Bow to the Dead... (Based on 9/11)

 

Bow to the dead
for they've taught us
patriotism and nationalism
not to be forgotten or ignored or avoided,
but rather embraced.

Bow to the dead
for they've taught us
to stand up not only for ourselves,
but also our nation
with the utmost pride.

Bow to the dead
for they've taught us
to protect
our land for
"life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."
