Notes About The Poem

A poem to a friend instead of the usual good morning.

Good Morning

As the dark clouds of history
Rumble overhead
As the vile with fake smiles
Follow through with what they said

We share a moment of truth
One not defined by ai
As large as a moment of silence
As small as a hi

There are strange times indeed
Marked with displaced mourning
As families gather around digital fires
And heat themselves with global warming

While the tone is dark and dim
This is not so much a early warning
Just acknowledging a bit of reality
And wishing you a good morning
