Libertas

[R.C. KITCHENS]

In America, we have a tradition. It is that liberty is worth dying for. Are you prepared for that?

A call to arms.
A revolution.
Weapon in hand.
This was a solution.
With wings like angels -
fighters in the sky
but we had rockets
and were ready to die.
When we rose up en masse
and let out a scream
they came with gas
and water stream.
They put us to the ground
and took us to the cell
so we took them down
and sent them to hell.
Many were burned
and many were shot
as we all unlearned
the shit we were taught.
Holes in the wall
and craters in the street
because we heard the call
and took to our feet.

This is short and has nice flow to it, I'd think imagery would be better in place for obvious cliche phrases. maybe a more in depth story from this piece. obvious cliches phrases to me are indicated below.

Billy, just to satisfy my curiosity about what you consider "cliche" (boy, has this been a hot topic tonight lol!), would you mind to cite a few examples of what you consider to be cliche in this piece?

I'll point out a few of the cliche phrases to me.

A call to arms.
A revolution.
Weapon in hand.
