a simple solution to the problem in Minnesota

do we

really need soldiers

and tanks,

to mobilize to quell

the uprising

of middle-aged women

in blue

cities.

angry soy boys

and 

whipped men

with pink hats on,

determined

to block the streets?

do we really need to send

in

the marines,

like we did on the shores

of Iwo Jima,

as we did

on D Day

to save France?

can't we just use firetrucks

with hoses,

and sweep them all

away,

back to Walmart

and target,

back home

to their cats

and moon pies,

back home

to the shopping channel

and QVC.
