The Beatles said it’s gonna be alright. 43 years later and look at this place— a rusty steel fortress surrounded by the idea of a wall. Everyone’s afraid the bloodthirsty islamic extremists are clamoring to get in. Drips of gasoline have killed what little power the flowers had. Red elephants & blue donkeys neighing at each other is the only entertainment on the 3D Telly. Children are forced to pick one— then support said animal for the rest of their lives with t-shirts and books. Nobody is allowed to have multiple lovers or **** a Muslim. Someone once said our only freedoms were “paper or plastic?” & “liberal or conservative.” If anyone questions said choices or the federal religion of God they’re branded unpatriotic & a granola nut. It’s merely frowned upon to drink neat whisky or have a beer before noon. but smoke a little plant & that’s 5-10. No one’s considered an adult until they’re $20,000 in debt for student loans & been divorced once. Not a soul remembers what happened to the people here before US.
