TALKING ABOUT WHAT WE KNOW


   WHO AXED U?  

April 16, 2020

Are you confused about the pandemic?
Not sure what to believe as news
of 32,000* dead spreads?
Thirty-two Thousand!
Dead.
No touching goodbyes.
Instead,
refrigerated trailers and mass graves.
In America.

We are taught as children
truth shines pure
like a porchlight in darkness.
We learn right and wrong.
We understand fair.
We understand kind.
Blessed with Grace,
we call it safe.

 
But as we grow,
words handed down cannot rest untested.
We watch. We listen. We reason.
We crave control.
We reach for spirit and peace.
We seek and search and hope
for an answer that can stand
strong, in the end,
if questioned.

So no fault to those who wonder:
Is Covid a conspiracy?
A political power-grab?
A foreign WHO Hoax?
Other bugs kill routinely.
Why Covid?
Why stop the world
for Covid-19?

 
The answer is there 
in the dented faces of our healers:
Weary eyes over mask tattoos.
This is not normal. 
One hundred dead by the Ides of March.
A month later, with strategies rising,
2400 died … in one single day.
Tens of thousands are gone.
More going soon.
-- Not over the course of a year.
Just six weeks of spring.

So the oh-so-catchy,
but somewhat shelter-slowed,
C-19 virus rules the land.
Heart attacks, car crashes, cancer
and other causes of death step aside.
This year you can't compete,
not when we're burying the dead in pits.
Some go without names.
In America.

Yup.
Flat Earth, Abrupt Edge.

...Onward
with a strong heart, questioning mind,
and multiple (diverse) sources of current events.
SUPPORT PROFESSIONAL JOURNALISM.

* April 21, 2020 Update:
Deaths in US from Covid now top 44,000.
States are opening for business,
releasing the populace from home quarantine.
Confused? Unsure?
Want a test as proof?
Like the games we played as kids,
which way to Safe Base?

“A beetle
will chase after an opening of light,
while a cockroach
will scatter at a crack of it.

How are we different from insects?
Nobody is purely good
or purely evil.
Most of us are in-between.

There are moths
that explore the day
and butterflies that play at night.
Polarity is an integral part of nature
— human or not human.”
