Symbol

I am 54 standing in
An airport security line
To fly out of London to the
United States listening to voices
Around me until it is my turn,
The guard is especially on
Alert due to heightened
Tensions with unrest in
Scotland, he stops me
To examine my blue
TXDOT change
Purse with a
Lighter
Blue
Cross of
Saint Andrew
On it which is
A symbol in Texas
Of the Civil War battle
Flag of the Confederacy.
However, in Britain the crossed
Blue stripes are the Scots Cross
Of St. Andrew and the symbol
Of Scots resistance to rule
From London which has
Caught the guards
Attention and is
Exacerbated
By the
Words on
The change
Purse, Public
Employees Credit
Union leaving him to
Look at me as an American
Wondering why I would have a
Scots credit union change
Purse and was I a public
Employee of some
Scots bureau
Or other.
I try to
Not mention
My name is derived
From Menzies or
Explain to
Him about how
The symbol was from
Texas and not some
Scots revolutionary
Subversive group
Pretending to be
A Scots public
Employees
Credit
Union.
He never
Laughs but
I can see he is
Interested in the
Change purse
To play a
Prank
On his
Mates in
The security
Service having
Determined my utter
Lack of any ability
To cause trouble
Beyond some
Loquacious
Jibber
Jabber,
He finally
Waves me through
The checkpoint but
He longs to ask me
More on why the
Cross of Saint
Andrew is so
Popular in
Texas
And
Why was
It the symbol
Somewhat modified
For the Confederate battle flag
But Highland Scots and
Lowland Scots Irish
Only mix when the
Alternative is
English,
Like
My
Own family:
God vill, I zall.
