MAGA

Today we’re asking for the restoration
of our great American society—
not just wanting to dress our nation

in old fashions—
tricorn hats and buckle shoes,
promoting restoration

of abusive Calvinist sensibilities;
no, we want to
restore sense to our nation—

a new Bethlehem
with not just wise men but polar bears and penguins—
full restoration

of life-possible on earth through empathy and passion
in the face of smug hypocrisy.
Our sorely-abused nation

shall rise to this great occasion
to help create a new community
of life through the restoration
of Nature.
