One Nation

We are in the Radio Days.
They don’t play What’s Goin’ On,
just Simple Simon Says,
we need a different song.
All we hear is radio ga-ga
and the soundtrack to LaLa
land of the free
-bird.
Think about it,
the last greatest hit,
will be mega
-tonned.
Sing it, clap, dance,
get on the good foot,
Yeah! (Yeah, Yeah…)
E-O 11
I can’t tell
if it’s swell
or far-out man…
nobody can.
Donny Boy’s pipes are callin’
state-to-state, across the great divide.
Is he like Ike,
or Ray-Gun Reagan?
Or worse...
Boom, Boom, akalakalaka-Boom,
tiny finger on the trigger,
little thumb on the bu-ttón,
he don’t know just what it’s for.
He just got to try it on.
Open the door,
let’s start the war,
everybody make like dinosaurs,
Boom, Boom, akalakalaka-Boom, Boom!
One nation under a fool,
(nothing can stop it now),
tweets don’t fail me now.

Walls, balls and Twittering fools...
Angst, fear and confusion, make snug bedfellows. Throw in a Twittering fool, who is 90% ego and 10% intellect and you have a basket of nitro, being driven over cobblestone, on a Pennyfarthing, with no dismounting stone in sight - even the camels are nervous...
I've read this a few times and. I'll read it a lot more. I haven't commented on ANYTHING on this site, in a long time (my bad) but this lit a fire under me. You hit many nails on the head simultaneously and I personally love this kind of write.
A hawk & spit piece...kudos!
