What is Happening?
The ordinariness of life
As day succeeds on day,
Now grips more than it ever did
And fear is just a sneeze away.
What is it that tomorrow brings,
How trenchant is life’s grip,
Will time refuse to stumble on,
Is now just a minor blip?
Or is this really Armageddon,
Is it what was foretold,
Has fate at last revealed itself,
The future to unfold?
Profound and beautifully written, Roland. ‘ And fear is just a sneeze away’. How true. Fear for the unknown ….
‘ Is this really Armageddon’ …
One thing is sure, the invader is clever, adaptable and powerful. We fumble in the dark.
May we find peace within ourselves and hope for a future where man has changed.

I believe you are right when you say’Man must change’. Thank you, Miriam, for adding that insight to my verses.
