My thanks to Greg, John, Rose, Stephen and Patricia and Leon for the kind comments.
It's so sad to see this wonderful civilisation of the inventive, eccentric and the sublime descend into a mean-spirited and inhumane theocracy, interspersed with, as you say Greg, daily killing sprees. It's not just that these happen, but that the system is rigged to ensure that there is no majority for doing anything about it.
Many thanks to Nigel, Frederick, Graham, KJ, Julie, Holden, Brenda, K Lynn and Bethany.

There are some events that can seem beyond parody but they
seem to happen with increasing frequency nowadays. I do like
the repeated request...doomed, of course, to failure.

Feels like the "pay-off" to a performance on stage. If this had
come from one of those "Beat" poets back in the day, it would've
been eulogised fervently. 😎

Superbly crafted poem, Steve, that encapsulates our changing attitude towards America. From the land of the free, to the land of the killing spree.

Excellent poem Dominic.
We've not only been,
but are still there wearing the same t-shirts coming out of the same cinema, carrying the same dog-eared book.
A very much enjoyed read,. despite the crumbling content! 😄
