Divide and conquer -Seek and Destroy words! Sweet Mo, not all is bull crap, Russians killing Russians, crazy climate in our face and still they won't believe and label it as liberals...I'm not a liberal I am a Democrat, there is no voting space called liberal in the USA, it's another label. A monogram meant to be Canuks rock! Btw Juneteenth was in the works for years under black history. A holiday isn't enough, compensation now we talk!

The canucks are sitting ducks right between the US and Russia on this big blue marble.Crazy knows no borders. We have a few political parties to choose from here, I’ve voted for all 3 lefties, but have settled on New Democrat, orange for that and Every Child Matters <3

not sure if this is more a put down of conservatives, but we are all welcome to our own opinions. Frankly I see more BS on the liberal side but both sides have a lot of crap going on these days.

This is a musing inspired by calls for a formal enquiry into Russian interference in Canadian elections and the reporting of Russian involvement in the freedom convoy. My muse may have chewed on and spat out more than that but your response about such divisive politics feeds into the theme.

Sweet Mo (not the pigeons). So long since I read your famous poems. Shame on me. Your poem may be controversial, but I respect freedom of speech. Triple hugs.

Thank you dear Victor! My muse has a mind of its own, I hadn’t planned this, I don’t aim to be controversial, au contraire, I loathe conflict. My TBI and accompanied lack of attention span has kept me from my own reading of poetry alas. Warm hugs! xomo

Maureen, I'll comment in second place ;) Thanks to my parents; I grew up reading banned books. I support women's rights, and the politics of my one trans friend. Climate change is so obvious to me just from watching how my yard and garden grow. Putin was put in, and eventually he'll be put out. My objection is the new US holiday of Juneteenth, which was adopted after pressure to appease the Black Lives Matter movement. They are the ones that want to ban US history. Thanks Maureen. Hugs

Bit surprised by your BLM and CRT stance, but I really don’t know much, more concerned with the Canuck side of things anyhoo, truth and reconciliation stuff. Thank you as always my dear, xomo

Lots going on here Super Mo, you point out some of the biggest issues troubling the planet in one terse verse, your pen being the true patriot missile of defence, cheers David
