the sunday paper

the news
is full of what i rarely think of,
or worry about.
climate
change, though i do my part
and put
cans and bottles
into the blue
box for
Wednesday pick up.
there's an article on nuclear
attack,
how to survive
and make the most of it.
tips from Heloise
on radiation poisoning.
i have beans
in the cupboard,
and a tube of Neosporin
so i'm ready.
and then there's all the confusing
rage of gender,
of transgender,
of they, them, him, her,
and what not.
what's the point of even thinking
about that?
