Today

 

today I am depressed

no, not mentally

not today

Ive been good that way for a while

Im emotionally depressed

 

they say my uncle will die

possibly tomorrow

their routine procedure

did not go as planned

 

my office Christmas party

includes an entertainment

no Christian should see

yet is praised by many

 

protestors protesting

against oil and poverty

tomato souped a van Gogh

“Sunflowers”, of all things

 

Canadas COVID emergency

is being scrutinized today

reaction seems overwrought

now that calm has returned

 

the Capitol Hill Protests too

are being scrutinized today

its foul-mouthed epicenter

both vilified and worshipped

 

two more police were slaughtered

joining far too many others

too many of us rejoicing

as too many of us grieve

 

“too many of us rejoicing

as too many of us grieve”

little more need be said

 

yet today

amid my sad and despondent gloom

I know I can, and will, rejoice

 

my God lives

my God saves

my God is love

my God reigns!!!

 

no more need be said

 


Today
