A War Zone In The Best Way

 


for those whose trauma isn't 

linked to loud explosions


welcome to lander on the fourth

specifically, the deep north

land of the free

land of the brave

ear protection (truly) required


be prepared to rise the next day

to the smell of gunpowder 

lingering in the morning air

spent firecrackers lying in the streets


folks slowly clearing away the debris

snow shovel or broom in one hand

coffee mug in the other
