Thelma
N. (Schlup) Shutters
A
PATRIOT
Can I not be
Against a war
I feel in my heart is unjust
To be a Patriot
Must I agree
With those who believed
In their heart and soul
It was right to go to war
To be a Patriot
Should I give
My support to those leaders
Which I feel
Went into war
For only political reasons
To be a Patriot
Do we not
Have a duty to speak
Against everything we believe
Is wrong
When our soldiers
Lives are at stake
To be a Patriot
I watched
I cried
My heart broke
As many people died
