1968 or 2020?


Which year was worse
In American history
1968 or 2020?
 
In 1968
The Communist’s Tet Offensive endeavor
Highlighted the futility
Of the Vietnam adventure
Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy
Were victims of assassination
Riots occurred throughout the nation
The Chicago Democratic Convention
Was a chaotic absurdity
Tricky Dick Nixon
Captured the Presidency
 
In 2020
A pandemic ravaged the land
American deaths were multiple times
Those in Vietnam
The Odious Orange Outrage
Polarized the population
And set the stage
For an attempted insurrection
