A More Perfect Union

We must and shall have unity, of course;
This is a union, so it is required.
But not the unity the mob desired
Of their delusions realized by force:
The rest of us have backed another horse,
And must insist that theirs will be retired
The fear and the division he inspired
Have brought us to the point of this divorce.
We shall unite, but only through the toil
Of true, exact accountability:
With consequences for the ones who roil
The surface of our dear democracy
We do not hold with chants of "blood and soil":
A union without fascists it must be.
