The British Government makes an educational policy decision: remove most American literature from schools’ reading lists!

Killing the Special Relationship

To kill the mocking bird
From the British curriculum
To say that mice and men
Are not good enough for Oxford
Is to denude
Shakespeare from Harvard
And Milton from Princeton
The Atlantic is a bridge
Not a wall of literary fire

North Carolina, USA, May 2014
