I worried about you, missing from these pages lately. But I see you were writing this masterpiece manifesto of how you see our world from a Vietnam vet who was fired for writing poetry’s perspective.

Keep a aliterating, hyphenating and creating acronyms and synonyms, spicing words into new meanings…all the while throwing out the trash of our society like the things we thought we needed, but never really did. The injustice and the angst of those left out in society because they don't fit the MAGA shoe size.

Keep socking it to them. So will I.

Ron
