Since I don't have Charles Deemer's permission to put any of his poetry on my blog, I'll just direct you to this link. It leads to one of the many poems he's been writing lately. Click the banner on top to see more.
What I like is that he's engaging with the dying zeitgeist of our country, and the world at large. Humanity is going down a hole, and it will never find its way out. Deemer sees this and tries to find peace and creativity, without forgetting the (needless, ugly) pain that is going on everywhere.
Our old rules don't work. And if we don't figure something out very soon, we won't be here.
