Inauguration

January 20, 2021

And so tomorrow

I will not wake up early and check my phone

for the latest terrible thing that has struck my country

Doomscrolling in the dawn of each new day

But will greet the sunrise and yawn

And go back to sleep, the cat curled by my feet

Secure that someone with knowledge

Has the wheel of this ship of state.

    It feels like an enormous weight is off all of our shoulders. Joe
    Kamala will do the right thing.
    Thank you for your wonderful words today, Kristin.

    I totally agree with your feeling. I haven’t tuned in to the TV news for many months. We were glued to the TV and news all day yesterday. Yesterday we received the antidote for our uneasy feelings since the beginning of the Pandemic.
    The day ended with fireworks that we can see from our house.
    We are United.
