June 14: How the World Ends

Bombs are exploding 

in the Middle East,

in Russia and Ukraine, 

in Sudan and Myanmar,

California is under siege,

tanks are rolling in D.C.,

and people are dying 

throughout Africa

because the United States

has a reality-TV president

who has normalized 

apathy and cruelty.

And this is how

the world ends.

February 9: Too Much Nose Blowing

Too much nose blowing in this lovely hotel room where I wish I'd slept.
