What we all fear and hope to know

"What we all fear and hope to know" is a short poem by Karl Jones.

What we all fear and hope to know

I feel like it's two corporations representing a gossamer fraction of this nation taking action. It's good action, I'm okay with it.

But I feel like it's a blade of grass bending in the wind.

Which way is the wind blowing, and how bad will the storm be?

That is what we all fear and hope to know.

History

I wrote the poem on the evening of Friday, 8 January 2021, in a comment on Facebook.
