We’re having a new years zoom poetry reading at IAWE. I may even read the poem, but the point is to celebrate what we do have, not what we’ve lost, that maybe things are getting better.
Certainly it is understandable that maybe people here are uncertain and worried. The musical chairs our politicians play before our repeated elections does not make it easier to feel secure. Many of us feel better with knowing there may be changes, but none of us feel secure.
As for the vaccines, I’m still talking to people who feel uncertain about whether they will take it. I tell them that they trusted Pfizer with their sex lives, why not with the rest of their lives.
