been in a spiral
since virus went viral
my livelihood taken away
while stress relief gym class
is closed by the Big Brass
no movies
no concerts
no plays
though much needed “me” time
is generally sublime
enforcing it renders its glow
an offshoot of bright screen
featuring newstreams
which content is focused on woe
I wonder what measures
we’ll turn to when pressure
to flatten the curve tapers off
if full body condoms
and masks will solve problem
of airborne, and there borne
or not.
if dating on dot coms
will stay there, not go on
to meeting in person at all
since droplets don’t travel
through sites, threads, or channels
through video conferencing calls
if you paired up
pre-dating pandemic
you’re probably panicking less
since 6 feet is same breadth
as depth for you in death
a distance unsocial…at best…
