Short, not sweet

I have to repeat

It’s obvious to all

But who takes the fall?

Trumps’s avarice for everything

Refusal to heed warnings

Insists on huge rallies

Exposing even his allies

His advice clear as can be

Give me praise, look at me!

A beautiful morning, wouldn’t you say, George?

Certainly it ’tis, my darling. Should we fly over the city to see what’s going on? The protests don’t seem to be changing anyone’s mind. What do you think?

Humans will not change. They will never accept others that don’t fit their personal idea of “normal standards”. They judge too often and are not accepting. The animal world is more easy going. But still, the strongest in any case survives.

We are lucky, Sam. We can love each other and our avian community doesn’t give a whit that we are both males. Whoa, see that? A nice fat mouse in the field! Let’s have breakfast before we go sightseeing. Are you with me?

Lead the way, George, my beak is watering already!

Lack of Willpower During the Coronavirus Sequestering: My First Two Excuses.

We hear them in the middle of the night, or in twilight hours when all seems calm, when the constant rocking motion should be lulling the crew to sleep. The waves are green glass mirrors, reflecting the small ship, and carry the inviting notes into our heads.

We make our living on the water, so after a hard day at sea, sirens are the last thing we want to hear. We try to drown them out with laughter and games, but our ears never escape their haunting song.

The beautiful girl’s stridulent voice was her downfall. Even the backwards, informal virtues that might attract possible boyfriends were soon wet with disappointed tears. There was only one resilient suitor who would attach himself to a romantic relationship with Sara. Her spoken wedding vows were a wash since he was deaf, but as their marriage went on, Sara learned sign language and they got on very well.

She stood, looked around and felt envy for the people seated. She saw everyone talking, watching the scenery go by, and she felt left out, and alone. It seemed everyone had a companion except her. Perhaps when she reached her home town she would be accepted and feel she belonged.

No worries child. I will remain until you’ve grown into a man. For now I will watch over you and keep you safe. But years from now, we will have many adventures together. Now finish your chores while I bathe in the sunlight.
