living here in the DMV,
rare is the tornado
or hurricane
that blows through
lifting trailer
courts away, there's
no wildfires to speak of,
no trembling
earthquake,
or typhon rolling across
the sea
engulfing boats
and sailors.
we're lucky here.
maybe a strong wind once
in a while,
some minor
flooding,
but for the most part, our
biggest problem
is listening
to too much news.
and now even crime is
down.
