Salty clouds dissolve

into a soupy sky

as a dash of peppery blackbirds

pass by.

The stew we’re in today

took years to brew.

It’s time for ‘22 to be consumed.

Turn off the oven.

Forget the news.

    1. Thank you, Tom. 💜Those driving lines, oh to make them simmer appropriately. A new song by Paramore. Found that in the commute as well.
