Patient traffic interstate,
Solar Glasses the only necessity.
Snacks double-duty in case of emergency.
Needle points to F
No need to worry.
Anxiety confounded by civility.


Poem number 046 of 365.

Did you get a good look today? I was very near totality, we were at 99.7%, or something like that. It was great all the way up until totality, and then, the clouds conspired against us. Some areas had it great, and I thought we had a good chance, but totality hung out behind a cloud.
