Unexpectedly Lyndon

LBJ
popped up 
this morning
just as I was enjoying
my morning coffee. 

Having closed that
chapter of history,
in theory,
his appearance
was not
a particularly welcome
suprise. 

In spite of
many favorable qualities;
liberalism,
civil rights,
environmentalism,
he stepped in
unexpectedly
and I was not
happy to see him.

His entrance
was announced by
one who has proven herself
untrustworthy
on numerous occasions. 
Alternative facts,
betrayal,
and ever shifting
stories
in which
the truth is very difficult
to divine. 

My morning coffee
sets the tone for 
the day's activities.
Today,
changing
my passwords
will top the list.
