Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

Say goodbye to the land of Oz in dismay where knowledge and logic fall away like the scarecrow's inner stuffings filleted, first one strand, then two or three until all his common sense has spilled; say hello to the witches of the west lost in their self-interest, done their very best all but forgotten about the majority at rest; see the lion lose his courage slip-sliding in the congressional forage where voice, common sense lay in permanent storage; hug the tinman, his final sigh in search of his heart when love to hate is split in part and nothing seems left from America's start; Emerald City crumples to ash and rubble as the sun rays burn the earth in trouble and embers rise and smolder the pseudo bubble; even the Wizard with all his tricks is cashing in all his chips and succumbs to the politics; while Dorothy and Toto too into the basket of the balloon flew to escaping the nonsense coup. A brief look back and futures questioned is this the wonderland for which we're destined?
