To the anchors of my heart
And the moorings of my mind
I submit this most arduous petition
A plea to firmly ground me
To help bury my head in the sand
As I cannot take any more
Bear all the heartache and pain I see
Accompanied by fear and anger
The progress of challenges confronting me
That I can simply not understand
Their numerous and bombarding occurrences
Mother Nature’s violent battering ram
A man’s blind and ludicrous trip of power
And the lack of that and other essential resources
Infected world on an imbalanced tilt
Making crazy decisions that dictate and govern
With no magical changeling in the midst
Substituted to save the it and us
But everyday people stepping up
To fill those shoes of miracles

I’ve just paged over to Word Press from the New York Times, where I could just no longer read most of the stories on page one. Thanks for putting into words exactly what I felt.

Take care Lou. I think we need to stay away from the news for a while to retain a modicum of sanity and prevent us tipping over the edge. Sending love and light. Have a beautiful day.
