left or right
quit or fight
express an opinion
whether king or minion
friend or foe
yes or no
no middle ground
to be found
immigration or gentrification
truth or distortion
sleepless nights
courts threaten rights
democracy or aristocracy
enrage or assuage
abandon peace
leave freedom in pieces
country or states
black or white
we must be one
or we'll be done

Excellent poetry with a obvious meaning behind it is always a good read; thanks.
Good write Fox. Someone said 'New Age' is now 'Old Age'. Doh!
Amen!
(but sadly, nothing new
about it
just kids, playing
with hand-me-down
purposefully divisive
ideologies and perspectives
thinking
they know better, than
the last lot, who ruined it all
for them
while, ignoring
that 'well behaved', silent child
playing, alone
in the corner...
and on, on, on
cyclicality
recycles History, to give us
that progressive New
we so need, to feel
like life, began
when we did..)
