“I have read a fiery gospel writ in burnish`d rows of steel,
’As ye deal with my contemners, So with you my grace shall deal;’ ”

         ~ The Battle Hymn of the Republic


Through Green-colored Glass
America’s enemies are fried, cold-war commies
served sizzling to a frenzied public
fed on fear of wild pinko Russians, liberals
enmeshed in treason, worse than (whisper) murder;
spies trading kisses, songs, atomic secrets...

The treachery of they who dared to love
amidst betrayal of our ‘cause of freedom’
begged condemnation, and got it good.
