Where have all the horses gone?

I am lonely in this sea of litter and booze bottles oozing their way onto my sidewalks, the sidewalks that I walk in the emptiness of Sunday because no one is at church anymore. oh, I am stuck in a place that is stuck between the South and the Midwest, housing the undesirable qualities of both. I am stuck in the Bible Belt, riddled with fiddles, in an area that just doesn't care anymore
because
it lost
a civil
war.

The South has never been the same. Where is the aristocracy? It has left in its wake hypocrisy, and filth.
I hate both sides, the North and the South, but I am inclined to sympathize with those around when I see the roughness of their faces and their hearts and how utterly defeated they are.

My ideas and opinions and compassion are not wanted.
