note to ornithologist: I know eagles don't have teeth
Note to the many enemies of democracy: No need to force upon us uranium enemas. Just billow a tiny bug into the neon lungs. Of our bumbling, deeply divided cities. Sit back and have a few Molotov cocktail giggles. Some giant panda bear laughs. As we brawl over soap and toilet paper. Cursing God under our sparkly COVID masks. No need for mall slashings or pressure cooker bombs. Just plant a few wolves dressed as lipstick lambs. Have them silence opposing opinions with racism chants. Watch the media spotlight a mad dog shooter and a rogue cop. To them, democracy is a demon and only worthy to rot. No need for new-age Luftwaffe or Stalinist Migs. To brain spray our safe spacing- I pod junkie kids. Just fill institutions with naive freebie magicians. Intolerant-contrarian-purple-headed-anti-Christians. Watch them brand capitalist pig deep into the skin. Of the hard-working WOMAN AND MAN... As elitist Beamers, their way to their fine gated homes. No need to invade us with a billion red atheists. Just buy a cheap blowhorn armed with "Separation of church and state". Lord only knows how Satan loves a red loyalist hater. It's so easy to cleave God from our courts and schools. To hobble our freedom of religion and good faith. One final note to the enemies of democracy: Lady Liberty may be battered and cornered. But in a blink can switch from beckon to blowtorch. The eagle may be bloodied but still has its teeth. WE THE PEOPLE have always rallied together. To serve another, beat down to all of the beasts.
