Like sheep we follow
Ignoring the other’s cries
Till they come for us
After this past week, I fear (even more than I did before) for the survival of our democracy. When we allow the president to act outside the law, how can we claim to be a nation of laws. When we actively persecute people who are not “appropriately” straight, adequately white, and the “right” kind of Christian, then how can we claim to be exceptional? When we support (or ignore) an administration that consistently places profit over the health and safety of humanity and they very survival of our planet, how can we claim “greatness.”
I fear.
Thanks to Ronovan Writes for the venue to vent. Our words this week are “sheep” and “weep” for which I substituted ‘cries.’

We’ve seen the failure of political and religious leaders, who apparently are unwilling (or unable) to work for the good of mankind!
A storm is coming…

Yes it is. Hopefully we’ll still be standing when it passes.

Living in the shadow of the cold war was scary; this is infinitely worse. Are we all really sleepwalking to oblivion?
