Yes, We Do!

Gilded words to make even the most troubled times
Seem like team sports in which we gather
Our mightiest grit and identity together
And line up our defenses, our sheer force of will
Because we can do this if we hold our line
Casting off the plagues of hunger, war, disease
All of which form in the small mind, not ours,
But WE can fend them off, if we work together,
Remember who we are, where we came from,
A vision of the Founding Fathers, thirteen for luck,
Ingenuity, vision, persistence, hope above all,
Pulling each other up by the bootstraps
We can, we will, we are, and we do. Yes, we do!
