America's Golden Age

"The times they are a-changin'"
--Bob Dylan

America's Golden Age
 
When the Democrats call you a fascist
In convulsions of fraudulent rage,
Then you know the time is arriving
For America's Golden Age.

When the DEI hires are fired
And one's competence matters once more,
When the bureaucrats are retired
And true criminals are facing the law,

When the victimhood culture is dying
And the genders diminish to two,
When the pundits are wailing and crying
Of another failed Democrat coup,

When the people are newly awakened
To the widespread corruption and lies,
When their faith and resolve can't be shaken,
Then you know the time has arrived.

Well, Alex, as a Fire Dog, this year should be a good one for America and for me, as well, since the most complementary Chinese astrological signs for Dogs (Gou) are Tiger, Horse and Rabbit.

The Dog, Tiger, and Horse together form one of the four "Triangles of Affinity". Members of this group of three are naturally compatible because they are all driven by a sense of duty and a desire for social justice. ["Social justice", that is, in a traditional, conservative context, not in one of DEI, Wokeism and Critical Race Theory. The phrase "social justice", like so many others, has been sadly co-opted by the radical progressive left, so I felt it necessary to make this observation. In view of the above, I can frankly say I will not evidence any "flagging" enthusaism for America, but I do plan on doing a lot of "horsing around", as the year unfolds!

May the Kitchen God file a favorable report on you in Celestial Heaven and may there always be plenty of Chow Fun Noodles on your table and plenty of yummy, hot Char Siu Bao on hand, also!

With Maduro gone and Tim Waltz dropping out of the Minnesota governor race, we are off to a great start. Happy New Year! I'm looking forward to the Year of the Horse in 2026. I finally published my latest poetry book "The Door: Selected Poems".

The Year of the Horse in 2026, specifically the Year of the Fire Horse, begins on February 17, 2026, and is associated with optimism, opportunity, and potential economic growth.
