vignette with woodstock music

~~~

The sky is falling

it fell,

already,

didn’t you receive an ice cold text?

Next

Green leaves hug neighborhoods, forest streams

hiding views

of things dead

The sky is falling

on who,

whom,

everyone, sooner or later,

between summer and fall ...

love the fall

beautiful

its colorful falling

collecting 'leafs' into piles of sameness,

colours don’t matter

in saneness

cause

the sky is falling

into new

where hate precipitates like dew.

We wanted decent healthcare, a living wage and free college.
The Democrats gave us Biden and war instead.

@Azazello
is funny--old vaudeville saying--it works.

Love the clip.

Playing two more tangentially ...

We got there early on Friday and were close to the stage.

@Shahryar I don't remember when we arrived, but we were way out on the fringe. Must've been 2 miles or so to the stage.

Even though I did not see it until today, it nonetheless magically made yesterday better. Thursday was a very good day for me and I know that was because of your Thursday post. There is no other possible explanation!

but if you'd rather not have paragraph break (wide spaces) between the lines of your poem...

what you can do is to backspace the second line until it abuts the first, then hit shift and enter together and viola! no extra spaces. the repeat the process as you'd like.

The sky is falling
it fell,
already,
didn’t you receive an ice cold text?

(nice poetry, by the way)
