The President's Bounty Poem by Randy McClave

As the soldiers laid dying
As their spouses sat crying
The president kept lying,
With a bounty on a soldier's head.

The president once again lied
As another soldier was targeted and died
The president was not on his soldiers side,
With our enemies he broke bread.

The soldiers fought bravely for our flag
We are the greatest in the world they would brag
Now their spouses received their dogtag,
To an early death they were led.

The president knew about it all
As he hangs Putin's portrait on his wall
Better his soldiers than their president should fall,
As the soldiers bled.

The soldiers they proudly fought
Peace, and freedom they all sought
But, their lives were all sold and bought
Now they all lay as bounty and dead.
