Tonight's Poet Corner: Sonnet Solstice #481
This Year by Belinda Roddie This year, before Thanksgiving, we endured bushfires in Australia, and then we all feared a potential nuclear war. Impeachment shortly followed, and just when we thought it all would stabilize, the plague arrived on our doorstep. Kobe Bryant died before that, causing heartbreak and ague, but at least Harvey Weinstein got a chance to sit in prison. Protests erupted across the country because, once again, cops just can't seem to resist adding dead bodies, mostly Black ones, almost all men, onto the ever growing numbers. Let's enjoy this food - don't mention the hornets!
