(308)▪︎[ Black Eye … 4•25•2022

[ There Sure Is A Whole Lot Of Angst Going On Out In
     Society Right Now ]
[ Society Was Just Walking Around ]
[ & Then POW ]
[ The ‘VID19 Struck! ]
[ It Hit So Hard ]
[ Nobody Had Time To Duck ]
[ & Then We Were Stuck ]

[ Stuck Inside ]
[ Society Was Not Even Able To Take This In Stride ]

[ There Were Whispers About It (1) Day ]
[ & Then Boom ]
[ It Was Like An In-Law That Over Did Their Stay ]

[ The World Has Had It’s Epidemics ]
[ Before ]
[ But This Became A Pandemic ]
[ As It Burst Through The Door ]

[ No Knocking, No Ringing Of The Doorbell ]
[ You Knew You Tested Positive ]
[ When You Lost Your Sense Of Taste & Smell ]

[ That Made Everybody To Quarantine In Place ]
[ Not Tomorrow Or The Next ]
[ No, You Were Supposed To Quarantine En Haste ]

[ The World Lost More Than ½ A Million People ]
[ That Put Some Families In A Deep Hole ]

[ Because Some Families Lost The Person Who Used To Steer
     Their Ship ]
[ They Used To Be A Beacon Of Light ]
[ But Now They Are Just A Blip ]

[ Some Ships Are Rudderless ]
[ Reaching Down & Pulling The Pin Of Their Duress ]

[ Getting On The Radio That The Distress ]
[ Is Truly A Mess ]

[ Then What Is This (CANCEL CULTURE?) ]
[ Is It A Population Vulture? ]

[ Something That Comes Down From The Sky & Shouts ]
[ (YOU’re OUT!?) ]

[ Confusing In The Least ]
[ Once Again … Was This From The East? ]

[ The World Cannot Keep Blaming Them ]
[ They Are Not Always The Problem ]

[ The Problem Is US!! ]

(844)▪︎[ Going To The E.D. … 10•4•2021 ]

[ I Was Told To Go Down To The E.D. Really Quick ]
[ So Right Now I Am Surrounded By Lots Of People
     That Are Sick ]

[ For The Evenings Entertainment, This Would Not Have Been My
     Very First Choice ]
[ It Does Not Matter Which Way That I Turn ]
[ I Am Surrounded By Noise ]

[ I Am Sweating Through My Second Set Of Clothes ]
[ What Is Wrong With Me ]
[ Nobody Knows ]

[ I Am Betting ]
[ It Might Have Something To Do With My Constant Sweating ]

[ It Has Always Been Crystal Clear ]
[ My Dr. Normally Does Not Send Me Here ]

[ We Were Surprised To Read That ]
[ But He Said That Is The Place I Needed To Be @ ]

[ It Zaps Me Of All Of My Willpower ]
[ To Hear Other People Saying That They Have Been Waiting For
     Several Hours ]

[ Just Now A Random Guy Came Up To Me Begging For Food ]
[ I Wanted To Say (DUDE … ) ]
[ (CHECK WHERE YOU ARE @!) Without Sounding Rude ]

[ This Has Not Been Very Thrilling ]
[ & These Cold Sweats Sure Are Extremely Chilling ]

[ When I Am Cold, That Means I Do Not Feel Well ]
[ For The Last (4) Days I Have Felt Like Hell ]
[ @ Least I Still Have My Sense Of Taste & Smell ]

[ So No Worry Of Having The ‘VID 19 Here ]
[ @ Least That Is (1) Thing To Cheer ]

[ About ]
[ But Not Shout ]
[ Out ]

[ I Would Not Want To Cause A Rift ]
[ & Have Someone Think That They Could Come & Give It To Me
     As A Gift ]

[ I Am Starting To Feel Tired ]
[ What I Wouldn’t Give ]
[ To Be Sitting Beside A Fire ]

[ My Clothes Feel Cold & Wet ]
[ The Wait Here Will Be Long I Bet ]

[ Oh How I Wish I Could Click My Heels Together & Say
    (THERE’s NO PLACE LIKE HOME!) ]
