The Great Wake 10: Another Universe

 

This must be another universe, these parties have crashed.  Get the kids together and see what happens, the peacemakers have been exiled, the madness is on the live wire, the reporters do nothing but report on reports, or statements, or releases.  Take no side, be for the people.  Time to walk away so more people don't die, time to draw up some conditions, time to quit.  Ditch the diplomats, they have budgets on their minds, they don't produce peace, they are greedy cowards.

My own congressional representative in D.C. just resigned.  Something about an affair with a former member of ISIS, the radical group that was chopping infidel heads off on YouTube 7 years ago. Never got to meet this Van Taylor, now I'm glad I never shook his hand, no telling where it's been.  Seems like treason to me, but I'd have to look up the law.  At least he resigned.

The current state of this union is awake, incumbent fish frys are being scheduled all over.  Dignity just met honor on a street corner in Winslow, Arizona.  Bravery went the other way, split off with integrity.  Respect just sat there crying about reputations and bank accounts.  Liberty finished a nap, rested and ready, dreamy and calm.
