CLASSIC LITERATURE’S DEPICTIONS – {a rhyme and an image}
Birdies of Spring sing Optimism’s songs
like Doctor Pangloss in Voltaire’s “Candide”,
that Good will prosper even given the wrongs
by which Rightists have long made America bleed.
Pure applesauce,
Doctor Pangloss.
Mister Voltaire
would be aware
that the Right is the Albatross
of the “Ancient Mariner” story.
With Trump as its current boss,
ain’t NUTHIN’ goes hunky-dory.
