by Robert M. Chute
There is something strange,
a change in atmosphere, I said.
A trend that has already turned
some blue states to red.
Is it a promise or a warning?
How can we tell?
The printer whirred, the paper
curled out and fell.
Is there a difference?
the printout read.
Robert M. Chute’s new book from JustWrite Books, Reading Nature, poetry based on scientific articles, is available from Amazon or Barnes and Noble.
