It must have been in Smallville that a factory
was built to build new facts out of thin air.
It was very profitable and taxed not at all,
they called it a charity, to feed a wealthy pocketbook,
it turns out to be a bottomless pit,
like a sewer with voting rights,
and by all reports, sleeps very well at night.
The Hard Right was what they named the place,
because to get there
you took away a right then another right,
and then another right,
and that brought you right to the place
where they built a fact factory
to make up facts
out of thin air,
or did I say that,
it's a fact.

'it turns out to be a bottomless pit,

acute imagery, the rage is palpable
what can we do
but share and hope more people
recognise it, too
thank you!
thank you, bob
I found this to be quite a fact laden read. It makes this reader recognize the very politics I believe this to be based upon. Very well written...and that's a fact
thank you , and thanks for that comment, I know nothing but what comes to me. bob
