I’m feeling patriotic today,

I feel proud to wear our flag. 

Our founding fathers had 

a good sense of fashion. 

style

Under my arm I’m carrying 

my notebook  

and a copy of The Constitution

of the 

United States of America. 

Like any good American, 

I puff my chest out

and load up my plate. 

The Constitution, 

a printed copy, 

The Declaration of Independence,

The Bill of Rights &

Amendments XI-XXVII

should be standard issues 

at birth. 

“Congratulations ma'am,

here’s your son’s birth certificate 

and his copy of The Constitution.” 

Standard Issue 

hand to heart 

“God bless America.”
