Ernest Hemmingway...
"The world breaks everyone, and afterward, some are strong at the broken places."
The Battle for Liberty
Who tells their children as they grow
Go forth and be lazy and weak?
What parent would tell them it's important you know
Just what welfare benefits to reap?
Success brings falls and cracks in your bones
Getting to a goal is never a walk in the park
It is not easy navigating moss covered stones
Across a river of adversary alone in the dark
The cheers should come for graduates and worker bees
Not for the corrupt and deviously cunning
It takes all you've got to conserve liberties
The number of uninformed is just stunning
If life has not contributed to your pain
Among the many joys your freedom brought
You long ago missed the freedom train
Is reaching for handouts the game you were taught?
