Are we meant to know everything
Pile the world’s problems
In the backpack we strap on our shoulders?
Fill our wells with fresh grief
With every morning’s sunrise?

Thought-provoking. The news is so often crushing enough that no one can bear it all. Sometimes the only sane response is to stick your head in the sand for a while.
I know that feeling well. Great poem!
Great poem
Fill out wells with fresh grief- Love it
Ignorance is bliss!
