I watch
this country
grapple with
staggering events
by joking
and sharing
memes as
another country’s
trying to
gain control of
powerful flames.
Because that’s
how difficult
stuff is
dealt with,
creating light
to process
the heavy
weight.
I don’t
have answers,
I barely
have questions.
I hope
everything will
be okay.
I’m just
not sure
that’s what’s
needed.
