rockets red glare

“And the rockets, red glare, the bombs bursting in air,”* For the wannabe King, Donald, he let the taxpayers spend over $600K during his Campaign Rally and Cultural War in South Dakota. What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?”* The Emperor Donald proved that the icing on his re-election cake was nothing compared to his big desert, the $5.4 million spent on the Airpower flying high over DC, and the parade on the streets of DC. No mention of the 2.8 million cases of CORONAVIRUS, nor the 132 Thousand deaths. “Their blood has washed out of  their foul footsteps' pollution No refuge could save the hireling and slave' From the terror of flight and the gloom of the grave.”* And the throngs of overly bored, overtly ignorant, outrageously arrogant, and outright ‘I could give a damn about anyone but my pleasures, persuasions, and personal freedoms’ UNMASKED/NO SOCIAL DISTANCING persons from MAGA cultists, Good Nazi’s, and Theocrats wanting more and more Christianity in this nation and less balance of church and state, wasted no time in celebrating a tyrant’s dreams and refusing to abide by the need of a nation Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.”* No longer an issue or concern, just a nuisance, THIS PANDEMIC, until in fact you or your family or loved ones succumb to the fake flu, the crowds who packed together like sardines, carefree and careless embraced the newest snake oil baked in faux “free choice/we ain’t no one’s baggage to kick around, folly, not wanting to recognize, the lack of morals, deceit, sociopathic behavior and intention provided by TRUMP!

The Indigenous Peoples of South Dakota were harassed and arrested, not the premeditated murders at the ready to commit homicide or suicide by attending a mask free extravaganza. We were told the BLACK LIVES MATTER were terrorists, but no words about Russians having Bounty Hunters paid to slaughter our troops in Afghanistan. The economy would thrive and survive, we were reminded, if any mention of unemployment, the desperation of living day to day, feeding your family or paying your rent, it was an empty promise of it will get so good you won’t believe just how GOOD! 

“And where is that band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion A home and a country should leave us no more!”* It was July 4th, and pretense, paranoia, pompous, propaganda was the birthday presents, presented by a man hacked into the office of the president! The sheep all in line for slaughter behaved as might any cultist deprived of sense and sensibility, and the haters emboldened that fear and bigotry were the real enemies; and reminded to seek equality, equity, and the establishment of fair and just was the true treason of this nation. “And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.”*
