We are
drowning in the arrogance of a radio announcer, drowning in the stupidity of
football celebrity. Turbulence he creates is difficult to negotiate. Do we swim
against it or go with the flow? We come up for breath, the commonsense of
decency, such pure life, only to drop back into choppy banter again. We are drowning
in June weather talkback, drowning in power that laughs egotism. Commonsense
says swim to shore, get out! The rip will change, calm will return, but in
midst of powerlessness, threat of death, we lunge against blind swirl of
broadsides, pushing our heads under.
