Patriot Games

Patriot Games

Today, rip open your shirt. Show your patriot chest. But what are you truly a patriot of? This poem challenges you to redefine loyalty, finding the universal love that turns differences into friendship and strengthens your soul. 🌱

PATRIOT GAMES:

Today you're going to rip open your shirt. Show your patriot chest. I want you to see through your skin. Take the time you have, show yourself a divine, earthly, interest. 

Ask yourself. What are you a patriot of? Give it one word. A word that rhymes with love.

Oh wait. Please don't misunderstand that word. Like many others it's been caged like a bird. 

Instead of free to fly 🕊️ like an angel in flight. Love's been abused until that term---well, let's say something doesn't feel right. 

But it's what we are connected by. A word we don't crave but one we are. You're a patriot today, to love, loving everything both near and afar. 

You will have your differences with others. Some will feel like they're too big to mend. But just imagine a world where those differences are what turns an enemy into a friend. 

Today you will rise up, to a height your soul always knew. Life will come together, these patriot games - WILL - strengthen you.
