[2020] Straying Off Topic

    
I name each one    
   
feed and water them    
   
and continue to bury their bodies    
to this very day    
   
No one who cares for others    
is immune to losing loved ones    
from a fate as simple as death    
inflicted by the tiniest of gods    
   
So live to the fullest while you can    
like you were born to do    
   
or be caged in silly anguish, ceaselessly    
barking, hissing, snarling, ranting    
at strangers you will never know    
beyond digitally monikered avatars    
   
about erosion of human rights  
aside from obvious espousing of  
opinion    
   
drowning out everything said    
with your choicest cut and paste
