And There She Was, The Humble Torso Unsung, Unfinished, And Yet, I Took It As Far As I Could Get.  *Picasso* To
The East, Light Thickens As If Approaching Night. Nature Has Ways To Catch Mankind’s Attention, Fires And Floods, Not To Mention Volcanoes That Spew, Earthquakes And Now, A New Disease Has Come To Call, Aiming To Wipe Out One And All.

Write About The Passing Scene, But Honey, Its Gotten Too Damn Mean. Hard To Make A Jolly Rhyme In Such A Desperate Time.
