As the Enola Gay has circled overhead, I’ve gained weight,
and obsessed over coverage of its flight: Will we be spared,
or perish? What orders have been given, and who or what will the pilot obey?
We knew these would be hard years; at least we can laugh,
say I love you, watch for the flags at half-staff.
After four years, it has come to this:
I fear that all I love will go to ruins,
and my little son is playing on the dunes.
O fluorescent fire, O heat that singes but not does burn,
would that you could consume me, I might never rise again
to brave fascist bullets or heroically weed my vegetable beds.

I’m writing to ask that you immediately remove Louis DeJoy, the Postmaster General of the Postal Service, from the Board of Trustees of your esteemed college.
We cannot let this stand; it WILL NOT stand. America is the land of the free and we’re gonna keep it that way!
I demand that you immediately fire the Postmaster General, Louis DeJoy, who is clearly doing the President’s bidding and turning the USPS into a partisan tool.
There is no doubt that Donald Trump is working to steal the 2020 election but what he is doing reaches a level that would make Putin or Lukashenko or any other of the dictators who win rigged elections proud.
