The bully
looks in the mirror
and blames
'the enemy'
for what he sees.
The bully starts
the fight
but accuses
'the other'.
Mr. Big
wants to run
the whole globe,
busts knee caps
when necessary
to enforce his
control.
Mr. Big
sees his
'window of opportunity'
closing.
The Global South,
rising against the
long-run of
western
Anglo-Saxon
corrupt, corporate
imperial piracy.
Mr. Big
turns to his ace,
the last card.
Hollywood and
Madison Avenue
write the script
for Mr. Big's
armed muscle,
the CIA.
admit it or not,
that's entirely
your choice.
(Yogi Berra famously said,
'You can take 'em to
the ball game,
but you can't
make 'em go in'.)
I live here
in the US
I bought the democracy line
while a kid in school
I still believe
we are all entitled
to think
and speak
for ourselves.
But it's now
a fascist nation.
What do I do?
Swallow my thoughts
or release them
like a free bird?

I define fascism as psychopathy - empathy's opposite. That covers our u.s. history in a nutshell. Genocide of native tribes, slavery, nothing new under the sun.
This has always been a fascist nation if you are willing to actually see it.
