A poem on what lies ahead
Omicron rages
While the CDC changes
All of the safeguards.
Meanwhile changes
Encompass our burning world
Earth is changing too
I don’t want to
Bring heavy tidings to you
Or…maybe I do.
In only one year
Democracy has been rocked
Temperatures rise.
Animals have died
Floods and Tornados have killed
And disease has reigned.
So what do we do?
When faced with this brave new world?
Well…maybe not brave.
I, for one, am scared.
But, despite all of my fear
I won’t become blind.
