Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of
universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I
reach my hands and play with pebbles of
destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs
reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive
in the universe.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys

Take It Where You Find It
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light

When people finally figure out the truth do you think they will build gallows for all these criminals pushing this poison?
Or will they just have another hearing and blame it all on Trump?
When the reckoning comes, it will be ghastly.
When people finally figure out the truth, do you think they will build gallows for all the people who got half a million others killed through stupidity?
Maybe we wont have to build gallows at all. Maybe all our elites will come down with a case of “German Burgher Moment”
That’s the moment in April, 1945 when the upstanding civic leaders in Western Germany were confronted by Allied soldiers demanding to know how they tolerated that charnel house a few miles outside their town
And then when reply came “We didnt know”, the Allies gave them an educational field trip to the camp. And then, the following morning, when the Allies come back to their homes and ask, “So what do you have to say no-“, they discover that the Burgher has nothing to say because he and his wife … ummm … hung themselves by the rafters the previous night. Thats the German Burgher moment
I wonder if something like this is happenning now .. The Covid Dr Karen Moment — where our elites know they’ve done something monstrous to their fellow Americans but are too terrified to come clean, even to themselves
The exasperation we’ve experienced… watching family, friends and neighbors goose-stepping to their doom… has been eloquently expressed in this article.

As usual, the Babylon Bee is on it: “SESAME STREET – Reports have confirmed that beloved Sesame Street resident Elmo died unexpectedly this morning just a few hours after receiving the COVID vaccine. ‘Elmo not feeling so good,’ Elmo reportedly said just moments before collapsing. Officials concluded the cause of death to be ‘unknown’ although medical examiners claim he died of massive heart failure due to Myocarditis – a disease almost never observed in 3-year-olds like Elmo.
‘It’s important to remember that our friend Elmo’s death had nothing to do with the COVID vaccine, which is safe and effective,’ said Big Bird to reporters. ‘There is growing evidence that Myocarditis is caused by climate change. That’s why you need to eat bugs and stop using SUVs, kids!'”
