O SAY CAN YOU SEE

chastise me
criticize me
and if it's all the same
I won't listen
and if you don't mind
I won't care
please do respect
my boundaries
I have no use
for courtesies
when your heart is mangled
your soul strangled
the Star Spangled Good Intentions
you so proudly hail
are arbitrary
to the contrary
and of no
avail.
