The Age of the Crisis

    Everything today is a crisis
        border crisis, migrant crisis
        climate crisis, carbon crisis
        mortgage crisis, housing crisis
        Russia crisis, China crisis
        tariff crisis, free-trade crisis
        health-care crisis, population crisis
     
    I’m sure you see what I mean
       Everything extreme, nothing in-between
