Perspective in Politics
Backslide (1954)
It was established, then they changed it.
All I can say is, it was done, and they changed it.
It was a rash moment during another tough time—
a reactionary effect meant to teach a lesson.
Those official soviet atheists
scared the action out of them, our Congress
Cocky as bejesus, fearful of so much more than God
they changed it.
