The Mark Of A True Genius

________________________________________________________________________________________________

The mark of a true genius

is the uncanny ability

to predict the future

when you least expect it.

Mark Twain did it

too man times to count.

Ditto, for Scott Fitzgerald.

BUT

in the Covid-sphere of 2020

where the safest form

of electronic communication

is Zoom,

the artist who predicted it
thirty-four years ago

was Aretha Franklin

Who's Zoomin' Who?

If that doesn't qualify
Aretha Franklin
as a genius,
they should throw
that goddam word
out of the dictionary.

Ditto, for the birthday boy
on the previous page

The song link is prefaced
by a quickly deleteable
advert
