Uncanny

It’s uncanny. . . How right has become wrong. How whites don’t belong. How living by rules is only for fools. It’s uncanny. . . How believing in God makes one rather odd. How our nation’s flag is a burnable rag. It’s uncanny. . . How telling the truth is blatantly uncouth. How taking His name in vain is absent of shame. It’s uncanny. . . How statues of the great are toppled with hate. How the press is unfailingly Left. How being put behind bars makes protestors stars. How America’s founders were racist bounders. It’s uncanny. . . How killing the unborn has become a norm. How breaking laws produces standing applause. How those in military attire are mercilessly under fire. How officers in blue are targets of spit and spew. Yes and alas, it’s uncanny. . . how so much we have cherished seems today to have perished.
