A Poem By Molly Bolte


DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS
(Our only hope, our only prayer, is that the Re-forming Light will save Texas)

The biggest ego burns
deep in the heart of Texas

The greatest hatred simmers and boils
deep in the heart of Texas

The only state in the Union
to have been its own country
we are completely conceited and proud of it

To be the greatest
to make the front page
to stand apart
to command & control
that is what we want

We are completely, utterly conceited and proud of it

We hate authority
We worship ourselves
We blame everyone else

We are completely, utterly conceited and proud of it

We refuse to look in the mirror
We refuse to correct ourselves
We insist on pointing the finger

Deep in the heart of Texas
We are totally, 100% utterly conceited and proud of it

We rant, roar, and rage against "them"
Them is anyone and everyone who disagrees with us
We shout at and shoot down anyone and everything that gets in our way

We refuse to agree with anything we don't want to hear
We reject anyone and anything that is not pleasant to our ears

Deep in the heart of Texas
We are totally, 100% utterly conceited and proud of it

We see ourselves as we are
We are incapable of changing ourselves and nor do we truly desire to change ourselves

We would prefer to die as proud Texans
than to unite with anyone else
