Twenty-twenty-four
has nearly ended.
What lies ahead,
chaos or peace?
The new year faces
global warming,
climate change,
and an influx of
frightened, illegal
immigrants,
seeking a future
for their families.
Both fascism and
bigotry,
are popular.
Have we forgotten
the millions of lives
lost to war;
fighting for freedoms
that we're proposing
to throw away?
Twenty-twenty-five
offers us a choice:
what will we do?
Are we so stupid
that we would want
our future
to mirror our past;
steeped in blood?
