Editor’s note: Jane Fonda and Cindy Sheehan are going to be at the Washington protest on March 17th. The group Gathering of Eagles was started in order to defend our Vietnam Wall against those mealy mouthed anti-war leftists who don’t give a damn about our boys or the Iraqis. You can get this poem on a t-shirt, and I would suggest getting one in honor of this occasion even if you can’t make the protest on March 17th. See what it looks like, here. The reason for this is-it’s going to cost about $25,000 according to organizers and they’re going to need every dime they can raise. Russ isn’t making a dime from this.

Fly High you Eagles, soar (a poem)
by Russ Vaughn

Fly High you Eagles, soar
On you we all depend.
To serve, to stand, support our war,
Our fallen to defend.
Stand firm, stand brave before our Wall;
Deal those a sorry fate,
Who answer Fonda’s hateful call:
Our nation they must hate.

Fly high you Eagles, soar,
Your keen eyes see below,
The leftist fools oppose this war,
To them no low’s too low.
They seek our Wall to desecrate,
To enhance their losing cause;
They seek to doom our nation’s fate;
They see nothing but our flaws.

Fly high you Eagles, soar,
Above those who seek defeat,
Who seek submission, nothing more,
To a terror they can’t meet.
They falter when the course is long;
They’re weak-willed, failed and bitter;
Got it all entirely wrong,
So typical of a quitter.

Fly high you Eagles, soar,
Stand proud before our Wall;
You are the nation’s heart, the core,
The essence of us all.
Know that we stand there with you,
In spirit and in soul,
America’s not lost, not through,
We’ve a long, long way to go.

Fly high you Eagles, soar, from your lofty, special station,
Know this is true forever more; you’ve the blessing of your nation.
