Sorry Abe

Our better angels
have flown the coop.

Greed and faction
rule the Soul.

No longer
Americans,
we are
male, white,
female, black,
transgender, gay,
old and young,
deplorables,
snowflakes,

and

WE WANT OURS!

An imperfect
commonwealth
become a
perfect bedlam
of balkanized
demands.

A divided house
of relentless
identities,
ourselves first,
ourselves last,
cannibal tribes
with malice
toward all
other others,
headed for
inevitable decay,
a slow, lonely fall.
