Turning aside from the news

A private club

After I learned

the secret handshake

of the Partners in Misery,

I saw it everywhere.

Somedays this poem seems about right. I wrote it long ago, after seeing Invasion of the Body Snatchers, the remake, especially recalling the scenes when the good guys couldn't see what the audience was seeing, which was the passing of alien seed packages from hand to hand throughout the city.
