CHOICE OF SURVIVAL
By Arley Steinhour 032616

You gave us the Eagle, so we could fly High,
You gave us the Vision, to see from the Sky,
You gave us a Nation, that accepted your Faithful,
We tamed back the Wild, so we could live Graceful.

We've soared to the Moon, with Mars on our 'plate,'
Harnessed Rivers, and Atoms, that once be thought Prate,
Our Country, like the Eagle, lived a full, strong, life,
We the People, Pilgrim, to Greatest, in Growth and Strife.

We, like the Eagle, must now make 'Choice of Survival,'
Requiring strong measures, to have perfect Revival,
Our 'Feathers, Talons, and hooked beak, must go,
We must pluck, scrape, and beat, with many painful Blow.

Four months, for the Eagle, Four years of the People,
Sacrificing our facade, to a point, almost lethal,
But, once the regrowth, matures back to function,
The bad ways rejected, to the new, through Conjunction.

We, like the Eagle would onward, then live,
Based on God's Redemption and desire to Give,
Our Blessing of Israel, means we are blessed,
But, Cursing, opens the Gate of Hells-Hornet-Nest.

So, Ponder, and Pray, how you feel we should go,
To Heavenly Bounty, or Hell's-Lake-Flaming-Flow,
Individuals aren't Judged with the Country, errored,
Some are Redeemed, but the others, aren't spared.

AMEN
