72 hours to the election
How many years until some peace?

Parenthood is resurrection
I admit I'm amazed by ancient Greece

Rick Steves taught me much about Europe
Traveling taught me much about Asia

Into the Spiderverse is my favorite animation
But I also remember Fantasia

Rhyming to me still is fun
Like sounds seeking soulmates

The arts give gifts from the Muses
Even after they suffer the Fates


                    Beyond dates.
