Ruth Bader Ginsberg




We lost one of the good ones today

 

Reminds me of the time

me and Colt

went after a bull with a sore foot.

 

Wasn't sore enough. He took off

over a ridge

with me and Colt after him at a gallop,

 

when, of a sudden, one of Colt's reins broke,

but one was enough,

and we near as the same had that ole cuss

 

turned and headed for the corral

when the other rein broke.

That's kind of like how it feels tonight—

 

out of control

and headed for a blow-up.

We will learn what it was like to live in Nazi Germany. Most people won't notice a thing.

Oh no :( that is terrible news! This poem absolutely fits how it's making me feel to hear this.
