since my generation is on its way out, & you can't have my perspective & you're mostly here because of tv, I'll say: that it was WWII/war itself that took our fathers away by death or desertion of family life. how ya gonna keep em down on the farm after they've seen the abyss?
If you were fatherless, whom would you rather have as an imaginary Dad - Paul Robeson or Fred Rogers? & yet because of white privilege & mega bucks & love of the Most High, Rogers proved the truth of St. Exupery's "that which is essential"...& Robeson with no tv pulpit, proved

old poem #2 yo, Texas!
Easter/Pashcha 1999
The Vatican has said No to
the morning-after pill
for victims of rape in Kosovo.
In ethnic warfare, women are
taken in front of their families,
to destroy morale & to satisfy lust
in the valley of the shadow of death.
Assuming these women survive
to bear children conceived by force,
the blended genetics of such Serb-
Albanian innocents would stain lives:
new sorrowful fruit of bitter enemies.

old poem #1
Dog the Wag
The "people's president" you push
& long have sought to crucify.
You never asked the elder Bush
if he had made poor Barbara cry.
In this Man's World a starlet will
advance the only way she knows.
"The heart has reasons" - friends of Bill.
"He can't do wrong right" - from his foes.

The House That Slaves Built
This is the dude
who did collude
& lives in the house
that slaves built.
This is Be Best,
with ample chest,
& not much zest,
who married the dude
who did collude,
& lives in the house
that slaves built.
This is the daughter
who walks on water
& wheels & deals
in 5 inch heels
around the Wing West
nearby Be Best
who's so well-dressed
& married the dude
who did collude
& lives in the house
that slaves built.

Subject: What I am doing for the upcoming COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic.
Dear Colleagues, as some of you may recall, when I was a professor of pathology at the University of California San Diego,
I was one of the first molecular virologists in the world to work on coronaviruses (the 1970s). I was the first to demonstrate the number of genes the virus contained. Since then, I have kept up with the coronavirus field and its multiple clinical transfers into the human
