Mixed feelings…
1
It’s horrible
but I feel a slight sense
of relief
to be thinking about
something that isn’t the virus
There’s trouble
coming in through the lens
disbelief—
no one’s thinking about
protection against a virus
2
The things we’re seeing
are the things we’ve seen before
They’re playing the same parts
doing the same things
We’re coming to the same conclusions
and having the same arguments
Come again?
3
We are determined to win
but don’t know how—
it’s yesterday, again and again
Is there a solution?
I don’t see how—
it’s tomorrow, again and again
4
Come again?
