Yes... America flows like tides into my blood too, I live next door and her cultured hell definitly tests my youth too! I am often sucked in to the culural whirlwinds of my neighbour. Mckay was a great poet and activist...Again I looked him up(thanks Diana) and wondered if this piece could be totally misunderstood and interpreted as a full endorsement by a broad range of Americans. Maybe that was your intent Diana, open up the minds of Amercans no matter how MAGISH. Thank you!
Glad you found it insightful, Peter! I thought the poem was really vibrant in terms of its meaning, and although I've never been to America (yet), it seemed like an interesting one to share.
