Today's Exactly100: Watching America Burn

A painting by Dall-E. Inspired by ‘Kilroy was here’

If you are severely disheartened by the state of the nation—the joblessness and hunger stats, the staggering cost of your food basket, the malice and ineptitude in governance—take a moment to tiptoe, peer over the fence, and watch the United States of America disunite.  

Let fly a fervent prayer for a country that has intentionally stridden back to the 1700s, rolled up the welcome mat and turned away strangers fleeing danger, erased LGBTQI+ individuals from public life and benefits, while rattling imperialistic sabers. Then pray once more, with gratitude, that our problems are but specks to their planks. /Vincent R. Pozon
