just something spewed out on paper the other night
Dog Fight



tracer rounds scream
past the cockpits of another
disillusioned generation

the hardened pilot
pulls back hard on
the yoke of tomorrow
blasting us in to
the icy atmosphere

our enemies
close in all around us
we twist and turn
through blackened skies

we are in a dog fight!

hot oil spews from
behind our
cynical propellers
drenching the faces
of our youth

we do not fear death
we do not fear life
we only fear being
out maneuvered
by our enemies

we are in a dog fight!

our so called leaders,
the puppets
are fueling the
corporate bombers
throwing our
unborn children
to the machine of greed

metallic angels spin and
coil in the heavens
machine guns rattle
as bombs fall  from
the clouds
whistling the
star spangled banner

we are in a dog fight!
fight! fight! fight!

know your enemies
know those who
have betrayed you

destroy the puppets
who have sent our
sons and daughters to die
spilling their blood upon
the desert sands
for the price
of a barrel of oil

they are closing in
all around you

fight! fight! fight!
we are in a dog fight!

our sons and daughters
suit up on  runways
but the corporate jets
drop bombs
and we are pulling
the triggers

hearts burst
and heads explode

the dead bodies of
our
fathers, sons,
wives, and daughters
litter the streets
paving the roads
to the capital

we are in a dog fight!

so keep those motherfuckers
in your sights!!!
