waiting for the (probably bad) news


 

I’m waiting out the day with minimalist hopes and recycling anxiety. I’m waiting for the hour for a smooth transfer of power or for things to go sour. I’m waiting for the word after a period of counting for freedom’s call or an accelerated freefall.

Every other American voter wants four more years of COVID-19, so let them have it! They certainly deserve it! Meanwhile, continue spending lockdown with your pen at hand! Aloha! Rico
