“Bye, bye Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry
And them good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Singin' this'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die” (‘American Pie’-Don McLean)
We are not that village once spoken about, willing to band together and provide for all of its inhabitants. We are no longer the land for ALL, to pursue happiness. We are not that shining city on the hill, a once con artist professed, being a beacon for equality. We are no longer an example of the will of the people, unless those people have been Corporations rebranded as People. December 20, 2017 people like Sad, Sinister Susan Collins, Phony Foolish Jeff Flake, Corrupt, Conniving Bob Corker, and Lying, lousy Lisa Murkowski, along with every other bought and paid for Republican sold the soul of our nation to the highest bidders, and shot the first ballistic missile creating a war of rich versus poor, have’s versus have nots, and in the midst of ALL of that chaos, added a little more Krypton to a sinister self absorbed bully named Trump.
Trickle down only floods the pockets of the wealthy. Capitalism has become a religion, and its followers must adhere to the first principles of selfishness. Politicians have become well paid puppets, Fake is true, truth has died. There is NO more music to be played to carry the spirit of a nation once capable of freedom and equality for all. “I can't remember if I cried
When I read about the widowed bride
Something touched me deep inside
The day the music died” (‘American Pie’-Don McLean) No longer can we remain silent, or in denial, no longer can we pretend someone else will come to resurrect the music. It IS now up to us, no matter what the action!
