Back to back, two in a row,
No tests - it’s insane.

With home-school and work-from-home
The mind wanders off.

I wander around 
Maybe meaning is in the 
Refrigerator

my heart palpitates with fear
what is the future?

a quarantine dream
waves of fate push me backwards

my house is my world
moving inside and inward

Just chillin' here on my own
Staring at my phone

More distant stars in the sky
May they grow closer

Squeezing out that door someday
With body buttered

to flatten the curve we aim
reunite we will

In hexameter?

A chance to think, breathe, make, be....  
Gifts like this are rare.

Appear to work, anymore.
This, too, is okay.
