RED FLAG

RED FLAG

Oh its a red flag
to the see the flag

of humanity burned
without necessarily first
being
    dragged in the mud

why so? Why
should we give a shit
about
  humanity and its flag
at all
      at all?

this the suffering needed
to preserve the sacred order

whose
      flag (blood-
               soaked)

       of Heaven

must triumph over all.

    Your poem delves into the complexities of humanity’s treatment of its own ideals and symbols, pondering the value and consequences of preserving a “sacred order.” It raises thought-provoking questions about the cost of such preservation. 🚩🤔📜
