John Telford: The 13th Hour – A Disquieting Quatrain

Spread the love

Xenophobic, ethnocentric, racist, classist kinds           

 

 Of misanthropically myopic, microscopic minds        Mask beneath intolerance a frightful face of fear                                                          

            

             That’s globally infectious –

the Holocaust is here.                

                                                                                                                                          A former Detroit Public Schools superintendent who in the 1950s was a world-ranked sprinter at Wayne State University and on the U.S. team in Europe, John Telford perceives neo-Nazi Trumpism as a genocidal threat to our country and to the entire free world.  Read his Telford Telescope columns in the Detroit Native Sun and his Poet’s Corner columns in the Detroit Monitor.  Hear him on WCHB AM1340 Saturday mornings at 9:30 and Monday evenings at 6:30–and all week 24/7 on DETipTV.com.  His books can be ordered at  Barnes & Noble stores and at amazon.com.  Contact him at (313) 460-8272 or at  DrJohnTelfordEdD@aol.com.
