Tough and Go (CTG)

Tough and Go

Everything these days is Tough and Go.
Everybody's got the Pickpocket Pox.
Earthquake struck this a.m near D.C.
and the government buildings rock.

I keep looking at the map of Iran, Iraq,
Afghanistan, think of Taliban and Al Queda,
Guantanomo, like so many jigsaw pieces: have
our enemies got the Bomb or not. . . should I care?

Pretty Russian spy sent back to Red Square.
Microdots hidden in tree trunks. I got
the Pacific Ocean in my left leg,
the Indian Ocean in my right.

Everything's fretting me.
Everything's Tough and Go.

Nice work Chris.

Sometimes we feel we're just rubbing along. But in every circumstance there is an opportunity to smile if we're willing to take it?
