fixing the world with a hot cup of cocoa

as the world
goes to hell in a handbasket,
you shrug
and turn the tv off,
then go to the kitchen
to make
a nice hot cup of cocoa.
you top it off with an
enormous swirl of
whipped cream,
then grab
a few cookies
from the bin.
with an old book
in hand, you go
to the porch
and stretch your legs
out in the sun.
oh well, you think,
what a shame.
