Standing United

​With my one good hand 
I type an email 
to my Republican 
congressman to thank him
for standing united
with the president
with Ukraine
with NATO
with all democracies
including ours
fighting to survive
an invasion
by a predator
so common
it is has become invisible
like the PFAS in our water
yet so debilitating
it threatens the health
and lives of all.
It is called
power.
