A response to a response to the Charlottesville incident
Nigel cannot believe that he sees
(his shock and wonder absolute)
flags of slavery dancing in the breeze
a white man's defiant jackboot salute
In the land of the free, the fascists rise
Thoughts translated into deeds
So, Nigel, why are you surprised?
Who'd have thought it? Who indeed.
