Numb. 1105 Separate And Equal?

“CONSERVATIVES” native language is ire

while “Liberals” speak mostly hopey.

As an admirer of neither choir,

it's hard say which I find dopier

as they race towards dystopia.

Two houses alike in righteousness

convinced the other is wrong,

proclaiming they can enlighten us.

And if you think otherwise, you don't belong.

Identical, save in the details

of what they say they believe.

Whoever's in power, actions reveal

practical differences are misperceived.

Each to the other a fitting sequel.

Proving — again! — all men are equal.

Sing, “Hey nonny, nonny.” 

Sing,  “Hey diddle, diddle.”

It's unsafe — though amusing —

to be in the middle.

Numb. 1104 You Will Not Replace Us

“YOU WILL NOT replace us,” 

you can hear the full-of-fear shout.

As did countless others before.

Before they were … “driven out”.

It is dead certain. There is no doubt.

There is just one way these things turn out.

Numb. 1103 Any Got Your Guns?

GUNS ARE NOT the problem.

“The Problem” is too many people.

Too many targets not the free market

second addendum to Wee, the People.

Drop population by ninety percent,

let everyone fire when ready.

While there may be one or two wounded

it won't, on the whole, be terribly deadly.

Guns are for fun. Shooting excites.

Keen, keep, and bear. — The Bill Of Rights!

Numb. 1102 Capitol Punishment

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT is a deterrent.

Dead people can't commit crimes.

Guy Fawkes poses no threat to the Queen.

Julius and Ethel no longer spy.

Nathan Hale got what he wanted.

The rebel was given his due.

So should it be with Trump Jan. Sixers:

arrest, swift conviction, and then … adieu.

Numb. 1101 Solutions 101

LET'S DO AWAY WITH “progressives”

like Moses and Buddha and Christ.

And don't me started on Marx and Mohammed

and other purveyors of fools' paradises.

What we want is reactionaries.

Real ones, not stuck-in-the-muds,

who will REACT to new situations

instead of prescribing hand-me-down duds.

Chances are scant our ancestors “answers”

to questions they could not conceive

can yield a good outcome though there is no doubt some

Conservative dupes will always believe.

Review the facts. Recheck your resources.

Estimate what you can do.

Prepare for the worst and, fingers crossed,

you may survive 'til the next great todo.
