Patreon Microfiction: ‘Songs of My People.’

You don’t see stuff like “Songs of my People” often enough, in my not particularly humble opinion.  I mean, sure, that sprite probably drinks Pabst ironically and has a job crafting artisanal EBay listings, but that’s just a side effect from living in Hoboken.  He doesn’t mean anything by it.

  1. Maybe I’m just daft, but what does the Alaska purchase have to do with Hoboken? Or is it that the Sprite is proclaiming his American Credentials and asserting that the Alaska Purchase is important to Americana?

    1. We could do with more grand historical epics. The Ballad of Seward’s Folly sounds like a hoot.

      1. Twas winter in the frosty north, the snow lay on the ground
        When Seward sought to prove his worth, the Russians to confound.
        He set about a dastard plan, to make his fortunes grow
        And though he was but mortal man, the Ruskies needed dough.
