Angst

Give me German philosophy

French gab, wine, poetry

Italian cuisine, belle cantos, scenery

Spanish painters, dancers, guitars Olé

Japanese fighting styles, haikus, sushi

Russian novels, laments, morbidity and me

Alcohol spilled in silent forests of envy

African suns come rise and sigh

Black Slavery and Indian castes

As Nazis seek manual scavenger

Book burner, oiled submerger

Cleaning society excrementally

Expose Poland, Turkey, Hungary, Israel

Brazil, Egypt, Iran, North of the DMZ

Batshit crazy, Putin beating a tin drum silly

Brotherhoods of tyranny, China be my baby

And now unto us a Trump is forgiven

And Trump our own brief grief stricken

Border walls and dungeons fester

White folk be just fine again mein dump

Bundestag burning - its marshmallow time
