Recent History (Free verse) by Nicholas Jones

Now it is approaching a year Since ground zero was created and what has changed? Nothing like as much as we first thought, September 12th, we thought that was it, there would be more attacks, America would bomb the shit out of various countries, Osama would blow the shit out of America and there would be the biggest war since Vietnam. Half of me wanted that to happen, because it would destabilise the US, damage capitalism And lead to a potentially revolutionary situation. I read in the paper Some French communists Argued that a vote for Le Pen in the runoffs Would destabilise the republic And so bring socialism closer. I can imagine nothing worse Than being faced with a tory and a fascist And having to vote for one. But in America, that is the choice on offer In ever single election they have.

1 out of 3 americas still think that the earth was created 10,000 years ago, and we all descended from adam and eve..they can't conceive radiation dating, darwin, and or biological evolution sped up or tweaked by environmental pressures..
in the whitehouse it turns to 2 out of three...nothing will change until a dirty bomb is placed in the whitehouse laundry chute, with a nice blimp released mid west small pox epidemic....accompanied by an asteroid the size of rhodeisland hitting the pacific..than it's safe to say things will get better again..except ewer for spanish marine live.. that could take another hundred years.
