Sunday Brew: Perspective

Editor

by Matt Aspin

Forty plus years and I've rarely been wrong

Betting that you would pen a similar song

Left and Right all doing their thing

Certain that theirs is the right song to sing

Denying the fact we're all scared by the same

Could just acknowledging our frailty make us a little more sane?

A thin sliver of life in a dark empty zone

It's no wonder we're crazy- We're scared and alone

F*** Fascism. Fund the Emerald.
