“From the mountains to the prairies,
To the oceans white with foam,
God bless America,
My home sweet home!”

I not only have my own history to worry about
But am forced to fret over insufficient details related to large
Unfinished concepts that can never bring themselves to the point
Of being, with or without my help, if any were forthcoming.”
