America Is Not Laughing
I am mystified
confused
saddened
by the breakdown of our country
it did not happen gradually
rather all at once
if we had seen a TV show about it
we would have died laughing
Because it would have been hilariously implausible
Civil War and unrest prances in my mind now
One hundred and twenty thousand dead Americans
and their families are not laughing
