Offsite Post: ‘White House’

 

The White House on the Potomac,

The portal to power, wealth, and fame –

To wield its dark demonic forces

Innocence is lost and the blood of man is shed;

Malicious lies are told,

Allegiance is bought and sold,

Deceptive arts unfold.

 

Your hope does not lie there, Southern man,

In demagogues making a noisy scene,

But in the glittering white house –

The church of Candida Casa –

Of Blessèd Ninian in Whithorn,

Nestled on Galloway’s bay,

Built by the hands of the saint,

Who lived and prayed in a little cave.

 

The Southern heart, aching for a noble, loving father,

 . . .

The rest is at https://www.reckonin.com/walt-garlington/white-house-poetry.

Holy Ælfred the Great, King of England, South Patron, pray for us sinners at the Souð, unworthy though we are!

Anathema to the Union!
