1) it was always fascism and fascism was the right word to use
2) they are building concentration camps and concentration camps are the right words to use

'Crackle' inspired by this video (you can hear it at ~0:04). Sinéad O'Connor channelling Veronica Lake while singing a Cole Porter tune. Her voice barely louder than the crackle. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PK9d...

For I am
The great Boreal Forest
In winter
Who longs for the birds
That have left for the season
And You are
The sum and song
Of a billion bird migration
Yet to return.
