Pledges
1.
I pledge obedience
to the flag
of a desecrated America,
and to the multinationals
who let us stand
one nation
of underdogs,
who are exploitable,
with liberty and justice
for sale
—Ron B.
2.
I pledge allegiance
to the bargains of
the United Consumers
at Wal-Mart
and to the stockholders
for whom they scam
One Supercenter
under Sam
unconscienable
with union busting and
sweatshops
for all
—Doug Graves
3.
I pledge Resistance!
to the rising tide
of Fascism in America,
And to the “New Global Order”
for which they plan;
One State,
Corporate, Monopolisitic,
and Invincible,
With Injury and Penury
for all
(below the rank of Manager)

I pledge allegiance to and wrap myself up in the flag of the United States Against Anything UnAmerican and to the Republicans for which it stands, two nations, under Jesus, rich against poor, with curtailed liberty and justice for all except blacks, homosexuals, women who want abortions, Communists, welfare queens, tree huggers, feminazis, illegal immigrants, children of illegal immigrants, and you if you don’t watch your step.
—Matt Groening

I pledge allegiance to the mind
of the united seers of wilderness &
to the psychosis we’ve left behind
I say, You are fear. You are useless.
Evaporate! once and for all.
— Richard Loranger
