The Friendly
Skies took an unwelcome turn for the worse
As its
naming rights agreement with USC felt the public’s curse
LA Memorial Coliseum
named to honor American Veterans of World War One
Whose surge
of troops to exhausted allies enabled the war to be won
Was supposed
to for $69 million become United Airlines Memorial Coliseum
Has created
a among politicians and veterans’ groups somewhat of a rheum
United
Airlines does not conjure up images of blood and sacrifice
Only no leg
room, overbooking, dead pets in cargo and suffering of passengers that is
anything but nice
Let the
veterans of World War One not have to roll over in their graves
Least we can
do for those who died to end all wars and democracies in Europe save
