Just When You Thought Coronavirus Could not be More Cruel-John Prine Lost His Fight Tonight.

Last week I was shook to my core when the news came out that music legend John Prine, perhaps one of our times greatest storytellers was fighting for his life, the coronavirus trying to steal him away from all of us in our hour of need, when his story could give us strength to carry on for another day as the nightly news threaten to send us spiraling down into a deep depression from which we would never return.  It is with a heavy heart tonight that I write the words, "He lost his fight."  As I type this post through streaming tears someone I considered a friend is singing his way up into the heavens to join his legend friends over a cold draft beer.

Just wish I could stop my tears right now...back when I was young there were many times when his words, his storytelling kept me grounded and sane.  RIP John Prine.  Looking at what Donald Trump has done to our nation, how he has bungled the Coronavirus Pandemic that took John away, I leave you tonight with this song..."Some Humans Ain't Human'.
