 I Blogged My Poems

The talking heads online keep asking us

what we’ll tell our grandkids about Trump,

Musk & Co.— what did we do in response

to his firing so many government officials?

Well, for my answer, see the title above.  Plus,

yesterday our class held its poetry reading. So

I’m out there with what I’ve got. And again this

morning, I’m writing and posting poems.

Resist, say the signs we make and carry. We do.

And the morning news tells us that yesterday

one of the rabid right broke into Gov. Shapiro’s

house and set it on fire—while his family, just

having finished Seder, was there! Jesus!

Speaking of whom, yesterday, Palm Sunday,

Russia bombed Sumy, Ukrainę— 34 dead,

hundreds wounded. Trump called it a

“mistake.”   Mistakes multiply daily—

these are our Easter tidings this year.
