My Husband Takes Belated Pleasure In Sherman’s March To The Sea

... “Stonewall Grill” was the first thing to catch Shy’s eye. “I’m not eating anywhere named after these dead slaver fucks!” he growled ... But my husband amended his thought: “I’d eat at the Fuck Stonewall Jackson Grill, if it were owned by black people,” he relented. He took some cheer in that.

... Georgia was a different story, with its mean-faced men, and its massive, sky-high boner for the “states’ rights” to own black people, and its Stonewall this and fuck-you that. As we drove through those pretty hills, my husband took great and uncivilized glee ideating on Sherman’s march to the sea ...

... His forebears were Kansas Free-Soilers, and 10 out of 12 of his great-whatever uncles died fighting these pricks. He takes pride in his people; he takes their actions as a reflection of his personal virtue. Just as these people must do, but they’re taking pride in viciousness and idiocy. They’re also taking pride in losing, and their South Will Rise Again.

When it does, my husband says, we’ll put it back down. Tra la la, tomorrow is another day ...
