‘Good is better than evil because it’s nicer.’
That’s Al Capp’s Mammy Yokum from a time
good morals were seen as important and a goal.
The potentate resembles statesmen in the way
oil staining a beach is like a marble statue.
That is, not in any way at all.
I ponder this until the cows come home
and warders try to lock us behind doors.
Timely and sadly, too apt, for what’s going on in our world today.
Sadly indeed. Thanks for reading and for your comment.
