How Do You Spell Relief?

Biden - Harris

It was a huge relief after Joe Biden and Kamala Harris were sworn in.  After that ceremony I felt as if I was able to take the first deep breath in over four years.  I don't mean for this blog to be an overtly political place, but as a human being with both a brain and a soul (or a sense of right and wrong, if you prefer) I can't feel otherwise, and I feel compelled to share that here.  The place where all eight of you might see it.  Cause I'm real outspoken like that.

Alright, please feel free to go about your business.  And perhaps in the near future I'll even post some poetry on here again.

Cheers! 

Election 2020

How dare you
bring your guns and your god
to the voting booth.
Take your threats
and your devotion to hate
they have no place here.
Fold them carefully
and put them into a box
and store it on the
highest shelf
in the back of your closet.
This is no longer acceptable.
It never was, but
the man behind the curtain
tried to make to believe
it was.
You were fooled, taken in.
We forgive you,
but now you know better,
so do better.
Put away your hate and your ammo
and pull the blinders from your eyes.
Welcome back to sanity,
to humanity.
