Aureole

Contributed by Robert Lyons

I heard that a new cold front approaches

A killer flow of social inevitability

I heard the crushing blow as the bull buried its horn

Lose we all must to weather the storm

Shelfs lay forlorn, the herd stampede

Selfish to believe that you can see

When a thief in the night intends to conceive

A plan to make short work of we

But barren markets because of greed?

Empty stores from stupidity?

Shame on the people of this great country

So in need of unity, so lean in close

And hear these last words

Wash your hands, all is well

Is that true? Might as well be

Nobody can tell because the blizzard blows

Think about this

I heard the mushers were worried about the snow
