I am not here to ask you what you’re going to do
about it — I admire you for just showing up.

A little dog licks my hand. She doesn’t care about

Two Hummingbirds battle over access to the feeders,
even though there are three of them in the garden.

Would they be in awe of the progress we’ve made,
or think they’re witnessing the prophesied “Last Days”?

Whatever we think about this world, it often turns out
to be something else. Depending on how we see it,
that’s invariably how it will be for us.
