IF we were living within a philanthropic, farsighted, fair-minded, freedom-based, good-natured, even-tempered society, the pursuit and accumulation of obscene wealth would be dismissed as abhorrent and obsolescent. There’d be ample room for folks of all ethnic and temporal demographics to live out our lives to the fullest; all the way up to each individual’s last breath moment.
Alas, the last time I checked, we don’t live in that world; not when it’s overrun with a gaggle of Putin / Trump suck-ups, tin-foil mad hatters, science deniers, miscreants, misogynists, bigots and other such whack-job creeps! Such onerous, odious realities now serve as the lead-up to this near septuagenarian’s poetry; downloaded with some (too?) tough to answer questions?
`
- Who knows when strong storms will unleash untold harm?
- Strongmen / storm troopers will schmooze their fake charm?
- Compounding our well-founded fears…
- Should old folks seek new careers?
- Vie with young folks; when we’ll soon buy the farm?

Be humans Vaxxed OR Unvaxxed, We
can still shed and spread the batcrap
crazy contagious coronavirus which,
in turn, spawns new variants; which,
in turn, could, eventually, render the
available vaccines worthless; which,
in turn, will drag out the pandemic’s
needless suffering, illness and death!
HENCE… this easy as pie, cover your
nose and pie-hole/hole-up heads-up:
Stay Publicly / Properly Masked!
Stay Safe at Home!
Stay Healthy!
