If they can force a COVID vax
Upon this once-free nation,
They’ll make you pay your income tax
And sneak in fluoridation.
.
Proposals for the “common good”—
Democracy’s great curse
Liberals playing Robin Hood—
Will land us in a hearse.
.
“Live free or die” is my war cry
It’s tattooed on my bicep
And as you see, “Don’t tread on me,”
Is on this flag that I shlep.
.
A fully loaded M-16
Will take out social rot
Try and give me your vaccine—
I’ll match you, shot for shot.
.
So if you go and get the jab
And let yourself get stuck
Your moral fiber’s turned to flab
You’re just another cuck.
.
So go and beg and plead and wheedle
Argue, threaten, try to charm
You can stick your COVID needle
In my cold dead arm.
.
*”Cuck” (n.colloq.): A slur, derived from “cuckold,” invented by right-wing macho assholes to impugn the masculinity of supposedly weak-minded liberals.
I agree totally with my wife Cathy, who simply said “great!” when I gave her a dramatic reading of this work.
