Das Dada Codified Bonafide Anachronism

Das dada = codified bonafide anachronism me thoughts infused with thom hankering for yesteryear circa antebellum i.e. American Civil War era veer rilly, teetering, smoldering, rumbling upon iniquitous tier United States greenacres crossroads with petticoat junction spear ritually hexed courtesy anti abolitionists pitted against unfair slavery, yours truly spellbound gravitating, fixating, entrancing, an invisible sonneteer disembodied spirit transported back in time, qua closing first decade of twenty century aware how historical events will unfold, yet lacking means to affect alternate outcome, though yearning to spare fledgling democracy deaf to blare ring coming fury me unseen relishing preponderant naiveté and childlike innocence before internecine warfare many stripling young lads, yet to sprout facial hair trumpeting, scampering, rejoicing after favored lass with no care gathering rosebuds while they may before their brave hearts got touched, torched, taxed... with fire, ah... so cavalier wondering, speculating, nursing curiously piqued how adaware those who frolicked within Autumn mist did revere observing what didst appear oblivious laughter and attitude analogous to good cheer omnipresent at Renaissance Faire, no doubt trials and tribulations compromised welfare envious countless scores generations past knew not global threats, nonetheless societal fabric circa early/mid nineteenth century severely wrenched when Emancipation Proclamation didst declare manumision, though sadly blatant anti semitism, bigotry, racism..., trumpeted within rank putrid odor doth still fill the air!
