Inflation
May 13th, 2024
Inflation means the cost of living continues to increase
I never thought I’d see such high inflation in my time
I don’t think I can afford this cost

Once Again
May 5th, 2024
I wanted to talk about the Jews being barred from universities, their homes and businesses marked and boycotted, their identity used against them back in the all too recent 1930s, but 2024 kept flashing in front of my eyes.
I wanted to decry the dehumanization of Jews by the Nazis, but all I could hear was the resounding shouts just this week of “Kill the Jews” and “Hitler was right”.

He’s No Hero, Please
March 27th, 2024
My son’s not a hero was her first thought
He’s just a kid
His smelly shoes
His messy room
And a constant smirk on his face

The Family That Loves Together
October 17, 2023
Families stay together
They learned when they were little
On holidays, on weekend trips
Because alone we’re just too brittle
Families stay together
They all continued saying
