I just think of all the new friends they made and the enthusiasm. Mike Lee is a jealous, joyless human bean.

Text of poem -

Autumn.
Happy the leaves burnishing their own downfall. Life dances upon life's grave.
It is we who inject
sadness into the migrant's cry. We are so long in dying - time granted to discover a purpose in our decay? Could we be cut open, would there be more than the saw's wound, all humanity's rings widening only towards ageing?
To creep in for shelter under the bone's tree is to be charred by time's lightning stroke. The leaves fall variously as do thoughts to reveal the bareness of the mind's landscape
through which we must press on towards the openness of its horizons.

Bidding goodbye to the day. Today was a good day in a dark time. Let's hope for more days like this. #NoKings
