July. Summer on the island
muffles in scarves.
Merino-socked, Berghaus-booted,
swap cocoon of car
for hilly slither. Pilgrim-trail
with sodden strangers,
step in time to the cadence of rain…
—Nikki Robson, “The Callanish Stones”
published in Other Worlds: An Anthology of Scottish Island Poems (Birlinn, 2022)

So much sympathy to all the dog owners whose poor pups are shuddering right now terrified, burrowing under desks, tables, and blankets; into closets or any small space they can find regardless of their size; the booms and unnatural thunder, the rapid-fire explosions, sending a primal terror through their sweet domestic minds.

It is shocking and hurts the heart that four votes is all it took for America to take such a dark, deranged and damaging turn. On the other hand four is a very close vote.
We have a huge amount of work to do to reverse this abomination. To try to educate those who voted Republican or who did not vote. To boot the extremists out of public office. But it is NOT out of reach.
And meantime we must also do all we can to help those who are harmed.
