Burned!

This blog has been faltering of late,
more new entries have been based
on anniversaries and birthdays
than has been the case in the past.

This reliance on nostalgia
for the recent past  has been
my only way of navigating
how appalling and predictable
'the news' has become.

So many criminals don't get caught,
and those that face the courts
get let off lightly. Leaders loot
the countries they meant to lead,
and undermine their opposition.

Living longer and healthier
does not mean living better
it means seeing more abuse. 

The best thing to do is live cheaply
and put less store by social status
and more store that nature
will benignly do away with us all.
