Legacy

The danger of disloyal oppositions
is that they rend the country they would wrest
control of, caution lost, at the behest
of leaders who ignore old "superstitions"
about the need, at times, to come together
behind a president; no greater good
can move them than the spilling of his blood.
The fall appears so close, they don't care whether
they have Right on their side, or if the nation
is pained by their attempts to immolate
the man we chose to be our Head of State;
they seek a revolution! Liberation
from Constitution, decency, the past . . .
Dogfights may come and go. Disgust will last.
