When the 'post apocalyptic' book section is moved to 'Current Affairs'




GETTING OUT

 

I look out the window.
The grey sky says it all.
War in Ukraine.
More in Gaza.
Unending Spanish rain.
One point five degrees
Of global warming.
Evil taking control.
Hell on Earth?
Not quite,
That starts in January!
At least that gives
The real 'Christians'
Time to jump ship:
Though in fact there may be
No earthly escape route.
(Overdosing on
Magic mushrooms
May have quite
An appeal.)

I know what you mean Allen. They said to me -"cheer up, things could be worse". So, I cheered up, and then they got worse.

Yes, the view is quite bleak from almost every angle.
