whenever you're ready, come on back

there's too much
news going on.
too much happening in this
wacky world
of ours.
wars,
politics,
terrorism.
China, Russia, Israel,
Mexico,
what the hell.
inflation and fear.
civil rights,
gender rights,
protests and pronouns,
animal rights, don't drink
the beer.
the migrants,
the tyrants,
the lost and lonely,
the poor and homeless,
the mentally ill.
drugs and drink,
all of it news, breaking
news.
tik tok,
x,
CNN and Fox,
i'm mainlining news.
Sweet Jesus, we need a break.
anytime you're ready,
come on back.
it feels like you're way
overdue.
