Widows' Club

the widows’ club
seasoned companions
suitcases full of wit

playmates up for adventure
out for an escapade
consortium of allies

league of septuagenarians
a powerhouse of wisdom
tote travel bags of history

Such a study in variety, in diversity of talents --- though I suppose I am guilty of cultural misappropriation or whatever the hoot it's called in ascribing anything positive to 'elderly white women,' Heaven forfend. ~ Sick, sick, sick of the P.C. culture and its know-nothing proponents

O Gershon, I obviously lead a sheltered life~ mostly by choice. Thank you for your SoupMail explaining your reference to "the mass movement to both rewrite history and to remove the racist, homophobic, xenophobic white men and women who made Western civilization the envy of the world."
