Tyrannies and Elephants

Not to be iconoclastic,
Nor politically bombastic,
But the elephant's weapon is gravity,
While the Trumpublican's seems depravity.

Part of the natural-process of an empire in decline (yes, I am American . . . Sorry). A psycho-social phenomenon of the cultural-mythos gone awry. Those of us who can still claim a modicum of sanity must state in the clearest and simplest terms what is, unequivocally, that single great evil that besets us. Capitalism/Socialism is a false dichotomy. The modern world has within its grasp the technological prowess to create the mythological Utopia men have only ever dreamed of. Sound the Trump! The Clarion call of a new age! "Heal the river beyond mankind".
