Theunknown is what is.  And to be frightened of it is what sends everybodyscurrying around chasing dreams, illusions, wars, peace, love, hate, allthat.  Unknown is what is.  Accept that it's unknown, and it's plainsailing.    John Lennon

Ode to 2020

(Try singing this to ‘O Tannenbaum’)

 

Oh 2020, Oh 2020!

I wish I could explain you.

Oh 2020, Oh 2020!

I wish we could forget you!

Election wars, pandemic cruel

How did the world survive you?

Oh 2020, Oh 2020!

I wish we could embalm you!

 

 

In wintertime, we sang and danced

Our stock portfolios quite enhanced

Then springtime came, our bubble burst

And summer gave no respite.

When autumn fell, we breathed a sigh

With Joe and Kamela riding high

But Trump refused to quit the race

He’ll hang around forever.

 

Oh 2020, Oh 2020!

The frontline workers, heroes

The year rolled on, the death toll rose

Our Pres. looked more like Nero

Black lives mattered not so much

Until George Floyd was murdered

Then some woke up to feel the pain

And future hope revived again.

 

Oh 2020, Oh 2020!

We wish we could explain you

Oh 2020, Oh 2020!

We wish we could redeem you.

The climate crisis coming fast

With not much time before we pass

Oh 2021, Oh 2021!

We hope you will forgive us!

 

Milan Hamilton
