A Poem Instead of a Story - "The Second Coming" by W. B. Yeats
b'Our species is at it again banging war drums, following the worst among us, dehumanizing and demonizing the "others."\\xa0Angry, empty men lead us and insist that destroying babies and other innocents with nuclear weapons is somehow in our national and human\\xa0interest. Rationality, science, our constitution and social progress are attacked as the brown shirts again march in our cities. Do any politicians love the arts?'
