Macho Men — 2021

The macho men pull out their guns

and point and click and shoot.

They give no thought to man or child

on the bullet’s deadly route.

Coping with COVID: 614,000 American Deaths

Some take COVID in their stride.

Some mask up and stay inside.

Some Anti-Vax as a mark of pride.

Others mourn some one who’s died.

Pacific Northwest Weather

The summer sun is clear and bright, and

though I’m not complaining,

I wouldn’t mind if I stepped outside

and found that it was raining.

Standing in Line

It could be a bank, or a turnstile,  or a store

or a brand new place you’ve never been before.

The moral is. “Wherever thou goest,

the line thy choose will always be slowest.”

Repent! Repent!

“Repent!  Repent! … the end is Nigh!”

Today’s bad news might make you cry.

There’s fire and flood and pestilence.

Humans have lost their common sense.

The Pentagon

The Pentagon’s in lockdown.

There is shooting on the street.

The situation’s “fluid”

and the chaos near complete.

Today’s Blessing

A butterfly or a fairy ring

or a dancing kite on the end of string

or a laughing child or a voice of love

or rainbows shimmering up above…

Whatever is “happy” in your own way

is the blessing I send to you today.
