the streets are
quiet
fear
hangs in the air


dust motes
flutter

anxiety
stutters

droplets of
breath

invisible
death

settling upon
skin

too scared
to breathe
in

in fear
of what settles


i love you
stay safe


breathing
in
fear

exhaling
panic

i love you
don't die


bring back
some
pasta
I work in retail... Bring help...

the trees are burning
and the worlds a turning
toilet paper cannot be found

we're sick of the struggle
we stay in and snuggle
pray we make it safe and sound
i'm scared of a lot rn and how i am going to pay my rent and bills is definitely top of the list as my work has shutdown :( stay safe everyone, wash your hands and stay inside if you can. we all have a part to play.

poetry comes easy
when i'm at my most queasy
when my heart is still trying to heal

emotions are not friends
they'll turn on you in the end
overwhelm you until you don't know what to feel
i don't know what to write. i don't know if i have anything to write.

Though we are separated, we will always be connected
this is for those in Rome, even though there quarantined, they are finding ways to connect thought music and singing, stay strong ,

If you can't hold on
you'll lose yourself in stages
parts of you have already fallen behind
Try to gather yourself up
being human can be tough
abusiveness is an ugly thing
don't believe the things that you're saying
At Least Try

Fox News has been
So successful
At stitching together
The bits that suit them,
They’ve just been appointed
Official Tailor to the Emperor.
