Yup the scene was set, we were the greatest nation on earth. We watched the Blue Angels jets streak across the sky trailing smoke of red, white and blue. The band played the star spangled banner. Children ran through the street with sparklers writing stars in the air as they went.
Some where far off people payed, payed for this opulence, paid in blood. We reassured ourselves that freedom wasn't free. We fooled ourselves that we were the ones whom had paid.
