Winter is apon us

 

Under the snow
the mountains
are like lovers
under the sheets

2020 the covid year

 

Grocery chronicles

Boomer
On a motorized
shopping cart

shouting "you are too close,"
through her mask
"I don't want to die !"

fear in her eyes
she speeds away
down the wine aisle

Grocery Chronicles

Masked marauders

pillaging the cleaning supplies

in aisle three

Little old lady swings her cane

like Tiger Woods

on the 14^th tee

Woman

in a parked car

crying uncontrollably

staring at her

cell phone screen.

Having no answers

I avert my eyes

and walk by

leaving her

to her pain.
