Cascade...

"Cascade of Failure."

I remember being at the hospital and hearing a Doctor say those words.
One system fails, and it leads to other failures, a cascade, 
and then, finally, total collapse.

Feeling the effects of a World-Wide Cascade this a.m.

An Ecological Catastrophe
A Political Calamity
A Brain-Dead Leader
A Raging Global Pandemic
A Loud, Ignorant, Malignant Populace

Our fellow creatures are dying. 
Our Beautiful Little Blue Planet, 
our Life-Supporting, 
Interconnected Ecosystem is Dying.
Yes, this is a time of grieving.

No way around it. 
It's has been a week of darkness and rain in the Heartland,
raging, fiery, hell-scape in California.

Life. Love. Loss.

The a.m soundtrack - Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds "Ghosteen."  (2019). An album of loss & sadness. Grieving. Sad. Gorgeous.
