off to Logan Airport there to fly to business out in LA

to satisfy the delusions of terrorists in this deadly insanity they've wrought.
God Bless America, as we hope and pray on this smoke and fire and death filled day...
God Bless those who risk their lives to save the innocent ones
trapped in the advancing wave of destruction and fire, terror and hate
and God please bless those who watch, and wait.
Protect those who work to save, and care for the thousands suffering there
God Bless us Americans, and be with us as proud we stand
prepared to defend our beloved land.
