Is anyone paying attention
to politics, to political polls,
as they’d (who’d?) have us
believe? And if they are,
well, paying attention to what
ever’s hot and whatever’s not –
in general – which, surely some
body is, wouldn’t it be nice to
sort of have a look at those
as our noses go back toward
those trends in politics. Which,
yes, they tell us loud and clear,
are just trends? Because I for
one am worried. And might
that give some help? What
are people singing these days?
Oh. Do I know this one? Am
I afraid to actually ask? Frankly,
depending on how I’m dosing on
anti-anxiety medication, I’m afraid
of just about everything I hear these
days, which is mostly the news, so it
could be my problem, being a devotee
of news. No. I know getting everyone
all worked up is a mental health disaster,
but what about the other disasters, ment
al health or no? I mean despite whether
or not. I mean, what are the chances
that basic trends might tell us all we
need to know on such matters? Is
anyone looking into this?
