The Immortal Jack Buck's Immortal 9/11 Poem

Since this nation was founded under

God, more than 200 years ago,

We've been the bastion of

Freedom...

The light which keeps the free world

Aglow.

We do not covet the possessions of

Others, we are blessed with the

Bounty we share.

We have rushed to help other

Nations...anything...anytime...

Anywhere.

War is just not our nature...we

Won't start, but we will end the fight.

If we are involved we shall be

Resolved to protect what we know is

Right.

We've been challenged by a

Cowardly foe, who strikes and then

Hides from our view.

With one voice we say there's no

Choice today, there is only one

Thing to do.

Everyone is saying the same thing

And praying that we end these

Senseless moments we are living.

As our fathers did before, we shall

Win this unwanted war.

And our children will enjoy the

Future, we'll be giving.
