Lately,
you keep reading these stories
about rugged individuals.
Rugged individuals
scaling the supply side approach
to the summit of their dream.
Rugged individuals
who get caught
in the leveraged white out
and flame out.
The mass of their helplessness
increased by the measure of impending doom
triggers violent supernovae.
Rugged individualism
This is a new thread
in the ongoing conversation
concerning the widely held belief
in American execptionalism.
Lately you may have noticed
increasing reports
of white dwarves exploding
in gas clouds of little black holes.
Little black holes
that bore through the flesh
of surrounding heavenly bodies.
These little black holes
are purchased and spent
by the white dwarves exploding
in increasing instances of rugged individuals
exercising their god-given right
to bear witness to their unwavering belief
in American exceptionalism.
Lately
we have all suffered
but I am not afraid.
My country has chosen change
and my country has dared to hope
and my country is filled with rugged individualism
because in America
everyone is a star,
burning bright
or burning out.
