The Internationale

Down the street at the local high school, the marching band is playing martial music, all those pro-military, pro-nationalism anthems designed to swell the heart and set a tear in the eye. After a rousing Irving Berlin tune, what true American can fail to support a little preemptive war on Islamofacism? Line ’em up!

To counteract it, I drag one of my stereo speakers onto the back porch and play Billy Bragg singing “The Internationale” as loud as it will go without cracking the head. No one in this area will understand it, but it makes me feel better.

I’m not sure where I’m going with the blog; I’m quite unhappy with it lately. Until I figure it out, I hope you’ll bear with me.
