Let us praise Gabriel Gudding
For letting me make this up
Let us praise the union of one man and one woman in 1978
For they produced a 5’10 blue eyed brilliant man
Let us learn from the distress of a girl
For the actions of the boy were so very misleading
Let us praise the Marine Corps
For they gave him an extraordinary physique.
Let us recognize their mindful and mindless-ness
For their thoughts are not always their own- or thoughts.
Let us praise George W. Bush’s war in
For that it made the Marine solitaire.
Let us praise Uncle Sam’s ownership
For now that her Marine is free he wants to be his own.
Let us applaud her resolve
For she kept her tears inside
Let us rejoice in her stoicism
For she never told him how he hurt her.
Let us enjoy her laughter’s resounding ironic echoes
For he just asked if they could still be friends.
For she has read between the lines
Let us mirror her smile as she sees the return of
For being a lone star isn’t just for Texans
