A Yeats excerpt that feels all too current.
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.@jon-nyc said in The poetry thread:

Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Being Irish, he means something very specific.
Please love yourself.

The change already happened, though, according to Yeats. Following along your reason for sharing this, Trump's not the beast but rather a byproduct of it. Same for Biden.
