Notes About The Poem

I voted by mail today
A Primary Election, Governor, Mayor, when a familiar vibe came over me. 

Civil War II

Civil War II

Perhaps if civil war comes, it will be broken into scores of guerilla wars.  
This prolonged agony is a reason General Lee surrendered!

The division in America—2024

Once again, they’ll vote him in
Unfinished business he’s say’n
With inflation, border security, and Putin
If I were President, no war ‘tween Russian and Ukrainian 

The root of every problem lies at the feet of DemocRats
I’ll make America even greater again so wish me congrats
With all due respect, say the other body, about MAGA Mayhem
Coming from the Rat Party, Trump’s administration 

Second American Civil War erupts

Portland bucks any attempt at a putsch, mobs
on the part of bonkers right wing nutjobs
NOVA-Richmond-Hampton Roads urban corridor
Virginia’s historic ties to the first Civil War

Michigan takes firmly on the blue population
Process of coups and political consolation  
Attempt on the part of the Far Right
Blue stand up winning this states fight

New York City is far more progressive 
N. Y.  State revolutionary hotbed, aggressive 
The Big Apple proclaims itself a free city    
Maine, Texas, California, I can go on, such a pity

Political Refugees  
                           
The Deep South the old confederacy on a political level 
Getting extremely excited, a race with the devil 
As for the rest of the states, their ability to pick one side, but please
Their biggest problem would be dealing with political refugees

An assessment and something to seriously ponder!

Hi Ann, I was reading your comment and at the same time I am listening to NPR radio, the court congressional hearings concerning the insurrection and, on the U.S. Capital. It just brings back those bad vibes...very sad. Thank you for your visit!

Anaya, thanX for all your "work" - u have warned all of us: DemoncRats, Repukincan Rats, independence crats, Recycled cabs, Afri-cans, Asians, SitOnFenceCans. If u can can. Shalom, shalom. Fact: there is more freedom to talk about Judea, Samaria, Semitic, peace ( Peace now) ... than here! So political, such slavery to "parties" (as GW Prez 1 warned)

GW didn't like the idea of political parties, I agree, unfortunately Anil, it is unavoidable, and I too am addicted to the radio! God Bless the tribes of Israel!

Many say the USA will be divided again. There are too many laws that differ. Pity.

Yes, let's hope for a divine intervention in the U.S. Victor. A very serious matter.
