Who would have thought the rhyming of LAZY and CRAZY would be the key to understanding our present plight?
It seems instead of being aroused to counter-action, we sink back and dither at the keyboard as the World as both the mass of people and the physical planet (the weather) break down (go crazy) . WE need to arouse ourselves the way Blake did through poetry: BRING ME MY BOW OF BURNING GOLD; BRING ME MY ARROWS OF DESIRE; BRING ME MY CHARIOT OF FIRE. Your poem declares the same challenge to today's poets.
My computer just received a winter storm warning from the national weather service. Tomorrow is supposed to be hazardous. I am staying off the streets. : -)
