Curtain Call

Crushing humidity
  Like an iron curtain
Heave-ho... Lift! ~
  World's lungs revive

This makes me think of the iron lungs they had in the fifties - and now we seem to have come full circle -

I honestly was thinking of those awful iron lungs when I wrote this little poem. Thanks, Michelle. Cheers, Gershon

They sure do need an overhaul Gershon, and not only because of crushing humidity! Blessings, Jennifer.
