in the midst of a pandemic

in the midst of a #pandemic

a #political #campaign
the #presidential #election
a great time of reckoning
in the midst of a #pandemic
as a #nation, as each #state.

arguing about facts
not their meaning, their import,
separated into camps
a divided #tribal #kingdom
hardly a #united state.

our #fate in the balance
our #dream of #democracy
the #rule of #law, #law and #order,
how we live #together
how we relate.

a showdown in the trenches
mortars lobbed, #people #dying,
#protests, #riots in the street
a great time of reckoning 
as a #nation, each #state.
