" This decade-long Trump saga has felt to me like all the worst aspects of a very long plane ride: lobotomized boredom punctuated with turbulence and terror."

hours into the sinking sun, i step outside
   noise comes over the wooden fence
i used to love a bright cold day like this but now
   even for a break not much

   over something i can't stop
despite myself i fall into comfort & lingering habits
   how much longer will they run
& is it any use to talk about those dying
