JanPoWriMo 6

The best a presidential historian 
Just could muster is 

I don’t mean to leave everybody 
Hanging but 

We’ll just have to wait and see if 
Our system holds 

You and I have children and they 
Are in danger tonight 

The country the country is in danger
The newscaster 

(In another building due to the ongoing 
Emergency) 

Explained while the historian nodded 
And nodded putting 

A period on this unprecedented day 
That is still happening
