Tea Party

Tea Party

From the four corners
and of every stripe
they came against the 

Federal might to fight.

Armed not with sticks, 
guns or violent intent

but with a message,
"to home you are sent."

Some were young and
some old in their bones
and all heard the sound
of the founder's moans
where helpless and silent
in their graves they lay
except......
for the power left
in us to have their say.
