The Next Time We Are Attacked, a Poem about Justice

We can survive the next attack on the United States with nerves of steel and an uncompromising belief in getting the truth.

We can survive the next 9/11.It will be just like reading history.


The next time we are attacked will be just like before

There will be more victims.

But aware of conspiracy there will be more.


The next time we are attacked the heat will be hotter

Our leaders will talk about a tough response.

But none of them will point to the real plotters.


The next time we are attacked there will be talk

"Desperate times call for desperate measures."

The ones wanting less freedom will tell us to walk.


The next time we are attacked people will join in protest

And denounce the official enemy.

Now it is us they'll come after next.


The next time we are attacked the best evidence of acts

Will be known.

Only to those who pay attention to facts.


The next time we are attacked "talking heads" will gather and say

That the official theory need not be debated.

And we will seek out other outlets of information, anyway.


The next time we are attacked the government, media and others who bray

Will suppress information.

And hope that those who want the truth will go away.


The next time we are attacked it is up to us

To hold on to our heads while others lose theirs.

And never lose sight of truth and justice.
