Old Itchy and Scratchy MAGA
needed fifteen minutes of fame
then ten times more for rage and blame
like an Anglo-Saxon saga.
It was fight, fight, fight... fight, fight, fight,
with buckets of blood in the schools,
when those mangy MAGA fools
got another kid in their sight.
I guess it will end when we're dead
since that's what MAGA seems to need
when anger breeds with business greed
in a white supremacist head...
where everything they'll ever know
they mixed with Trump and Old Jim Crow.

Witty poem and very honest. Like your take on MAGA and politics in general.

I really hope they’ll make america great again by actually thinking,
but then the same goes for britain
we seem to be living in an age of unreason ..

Back in the late 80's or early 90's I remember hearing that the national average reading level was 8th grade, but I wouldn't be surprised to discover that it wasn't even half that today.
If reading is the gateway to thought, then the U.S.A. has shat its own boot.
Who was it who said "if thought can corrupt language, then language can corrupt thought"?
And yes, there's at least been something like a divorce between ye olde quadrivium and trivium, and the real intellectual romance was always betwixt those two, eh?
