"It's unheard of," 
That's what people say - 
"Can you believe he... [insert inflammatory comment],"
"Last week he... [insert egregious act]."
.
.
I see it, as far removed as I am, 
And can't help it.
.
F*****g Americans
.
I think to myself.
 
It's not enough 
To build a carnival - 
To be complicit within the circus - 
But when the clowns come out
.
And with the very same breath,
.
You act like you don't 
 deserve it. 
.
