My Sister Gertrude
New Years began this year
Amid global poisoning
Gertrudes’s skirt began to burn
At the edges
Sirens blared, and some attempt
At presidential communication
Seemed comical
Leaping to my sister from being
Immolated....... prevented the President's
Message connecting
I may seem slow at this verse
The end trends to drift slow
The end trends
To drift slow
