every way you look at it you lose

i can't watch

these two old men bickering
on the tube.

i can't listen to another word
about
china,

about russia.
about emails
and

children on the take.
the virus.

it's blue news. gloom and doom
for all.

we have no choice
again.

but we wish upon a star
and throw

our vote down into the dry
well,

hoping, like a wounded
child

that tomorrow our parents
will stop
fighting.
