Chapter 16: No fandom

Notes:

This is in no way meant to insult any country or people/person. I just thought it sounded cool. With that, enjoy.

Chapter Text

Yes our star spangled banner still waves
But look past the stars and down to the slaves
Who work every day, hard without pay

 

Look there at the sun, bright, blinding, and true
Then look at the climate
Damaged by you

 

Look at the trees
Dying, in pain
All they want is peace
For us to remember their name

 

Then look at the others
Raising their flags
Watch them all fall
You didn’t even notice
Never made you sad

 

Look at the guns
The violence
The rage

 

Then look at the lost
Embracing their pain

 

Then look at yourself,
Up on your throne,
Ignorant of those,
You’ve left all alone

 

So, really now, the truth you can’t ignore

 

If all that is true

 

What is that flag really good for?
