" In that Year "...

" In that Year "

In that year
many millions
continuing 
inequitably 
conflicted 
within 
no centers
of opinion

special 
interests'
crises 
of spirit 
veering 
left 
wandering 
weakly 
upbeat

film-flammed 
masterfully 
like carefully
scripted nice-
guy images
of invulnerability 

seen flickering
on the big screen
as "not-exactly
intelligence failures
ignored and exacerbated
by, "I got your back!!"
via baton passing...
