Ides of March will loom
in Our Times for world-corrupt,
as a bad omen
for unchecked power,
rules can change: see Human Spring.
Action speaks louder
than words ever did.
Caution: Do not mock freedom-
fighters will prevail;
rogue orders obeyed,
thine ovis Idulius,
invite casualties.

Thanksgiving
For each new morning with its light,
For rest and shelter of the night,
For health and food,
For love and friends,
For everything Thy goodness sends.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)
