On the dark side of the Blood Moon
eclipsed by the shadow of the Earth,
who knows what’s brewing,
an alien bivouac in the tabloids—
all the government secret rendez-vous
with who knows whom or who
is calling the shots, the ICBMs
and loaded drones to kickoff
World War III, a real diversion
from the truth that may not matter—
a puff of smoke to the galaxies,
nothing for the rest us.







You’ve said it all John, succinctly & poetically. Apocalyptic perhaps, but truly our reality of the moment, though retaining essential hope this moment will change come November. Thank you for this gift & your frequent morning gifts through these days when one is tempted to take this computer out & shoot it! Meanwhile, I’m watching the moon. XO Karen
