It’s the cocktail hour. The air is still.
Mister gets busy on the charcoal grill.
Social-kissing women, backslapping men
has failed to break the ice. But then
Missiz appears like magic from the dusk.
Cool, ten years his junior, she smells of musk
and ‘Madame Rochas’. Two small spots of anger
high on her cheekbones linger…

The Voice of America on the #4thofJuly traditionally informs audiences in nearly 50 languages about our nation’s most patriotic holiday. But Kari Lake and DOGE silenced America’s voice of public diplomacy and soft power because they ridiculously alleged it was radical, anti-American and controlled by China. https://www.voanews.com/a/episode_explainer-fourth-july-3938021/6103452.html #SaveVOA
