Get Out

(x = space)

Get Out

Of Kabul

Of Afghanistan

Actions of diplomats,

Soldiers, staff,

And airplanes

Take you

Away

Don’t hesitate

Do you

Hesitate?

What’s up to you,

Leave now

There is violence

I’m sorry

Take up the politics

Tomorrow

What matters to you is leaving

Get out, now

I use C L Couch when writing formally because it is a version of my name that's genderless. And, frankly, easier for handwriting--I have a severe writer's cramp. In conversation, I go by Christopher, having been named for the boy who had the poly bear and finally being (achieving) fine with that. I use small Xes all the time because WordPress won't let me cut and paste the text from my program page to this one. (Grrrrrr.) I am a career educator, semi-retired due to disability. I live in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania (USA). The main photographs at this site (of the road, of me) were crafted by photographer and my friend Debra Danielson. A variety of her work is available for appreciation at Thank you, lookers, hearers.--Christopher
