Illiberal, Kansas [149] (July22) (24 σ)
Illiberal, Kansas:

visceral beading the strings with wood, clay, and glass;
never onyx, no mixing between Whites and Blacks.

© Kåre Enga [177.149] (12.juli.2020)

(couplet, 12/12, near rhyme)

1. Prompt is visceral: obtained through intuition rather than from reasoning or observation

2. illiberal: narrow-minded about cherished opinions

3. onyx: a banded chalcedony (stone), black/white, red/white, etc.

4. It may be obtuse, but there actually is a city called Liberal in the 'Free State' of Kansas where I went to school and lived. Free State = 'abolition of slavery' to Northerners but a better definition then and now would be 'free of Blacks'.
