Overload
Too much, too many
things to process,
to adequately pursue.
Shootings and killings,
Political wrestling,
domestic and global.
Elections and
over the top ads.
Troops at the border
with razor-wire and guns,
throngs of desperate people
with nowhere else to turn.
Republicans turn on each other
(is that, perhaps, good?) and
Democrats are asking ‘one last time’
for money—every day.
Sexual harassments are
a commonplace, and
college football is the new football
to toss around in conversation:
a good metaphor for a world
obsessed with offense and defense.
Offense is winning.
