Plague PoemsNov 21, 2022
When I read the headlines
I tell myself
that we must not
grow accustomed
to mass death
and then I notice
that absent
from the headlines
are the plague’s victims
and I remember
that we have already
grown accustomed
to mass death.

Truth.

Unfortunately, if we didn't become somewhat accustomed to mass death, we'd go mad. It's not an excuse by any means.

Covid death numbers are the fault of far-right conspiracy theorists, though Biden has also dropped the ball in the name of the almighty economy.

I'm still sheltering, having everything delivered, wearing a mask in the pharmacy drive-thru, & wearing a N-95 when my doc is able to force me into the office.

Individual responsibility = social responsibility
