A superb and powerful monorhyme, Gershon. We have seen each of these "steps" play out and are left with a fragmented nation. Excellent writing, Gershon, and a fave for me! Hugs, Carolyn

Thank you, for the FAVE. Wish it could be for a more optimistic scenario though. America needs a rescue ship (and plane too) at this point. :) gw

"Bloviation" there's been a lot of that lately; of the threatening, uncivilized kind. Despicable? Completely, but our nation is not ruined, just badly bruised and abused by far too many.

Well, I hope you're right... I think that what we've seen is just the beginning of a protracted war in this country. It may not be called that; but with each new death it comes closer and closer. ~ A. Lincoln, posthumously

Thank you. I'm keep the recipe to myself... Proud Boys don't need any extra help... God only knows what January 20 or the run-up thereto might bring... Then there's MLK Day on the 18th. Ain't we got fun?! ~ gw
