THE SMEDLEY D. BUTLER BRIGADE

by Art Goodtimes


Smedley Darlington Butler by Robert Shetterly / Americans Who Tell the Truth


John Bolton
Mitt Romney

McRedeye has to say
that it’s unexpected truth-tellers
of a completely different
stripe

that make my day

in FDR’s day

America’s not perfect
by a long white shot
but it has its heroes


Art Goodtimes of the Talking Gourds Poetry Program in Telluride has a new book out from Lithic Press in Fruita, Colorado: Dancing on Edge: the McRedeye Poems (2019).
