The dates have read like obituaries,
Lost in the confusion of limbo… We
Have been forced to face mirrors we
Never knew existed. Jobs… depleted…
Bodies dismembered from lack of self-control
Businesses beyond the threshold of ruin
Conservatives complaining about wearing masks
All of a sudden, when they haven’t had a problem
with it for the past 400 years. Okay kay kay (marinade on it)…
They have forgotten how to work in the unknown
Beauty is in the eyes of the woke. Have you ever
Been beacon in the darkness? A lot of us have lost their way.
Later they will ask you what you did during the pandemic.
Ask if found new drinking habits, studied new skills, a corona-bae,
New job opportunities, or if you ever did that thing
You always talked about doing? Are you and yours safe?
Where is safety when you don’t know your purpose?
When the work and activities you used to hide yourself from vanish?
When the next check might not even greet you?
When you are forced to form relationships with family and friends you never deemed relevant until this pandemic?
When we emerge out of this my answer is as follows:
I survived a pandemic and built an empire with me
How are you? COVID
