Hamburg, Germany – On the Streets against right-wing

“Hamburg, will stay colorful”

Secretly, I was wondering when -and if people- would finally wake up. Part of me has now almost accepted the right-wing move all over the world because it seems so many people are fine with it, or they just don’t know -or remember- what it means, and what a catastrophic impact and effects it can have -and will have- on our lives.

Oh, Germany! What have you done?

The results are in. Angela Merkel will go into her 4th term as German chancellor, even though her party lost almost 10% and finishes short of an absolute majority.  No big surprises here. Most of us expected the outcome, still, the election result is shocking. For the first time after World War II, a right-wing party will take a seat in the German parliament.

Scorched Earth

I was watching my zealot neighbor

picking individual zoysia blades at dusk

when it occurred to me there was no way

he would ever be able to disguise

that UFO scar on his front yard.

He could subscribe to every right-wing rag

but he could not deny his perfect zoysia grass

had been scorched by a spaceship.

I thought about drones awhile,
