Chemical Weapons,
Nuclear Weapons,
A Really Close Election,
So it goes,
In our world.

Eclipsing the Eclipse,
Manufacturing personal bliss
Of Parliaments of Past and Present.
Where does it end,
The guilt of Knowledge?

Passaging India,
Occupational Hazards, Part 2,
Shi’ite Shrine Shattered,
A Peek at Pakistan…
So it comes,
To our world.

Companion piece of the day/date.

Pompostic Pageantry

Pageantry, pomposity,
And pontification
Seem more important
Within country to country
Religion to religion excuses of
Past-ridiculousness
Than the now of Now.
How callous becomes
Pageantry of one
Nation, one Belief,
One Self.
