Quarantine

County now on hold.Not wanting people to hurt;but where now to head?

I see their mouths move.Many promises coming;hear, “It’s about me.”

Eyes closed in the fire And I’m off soaring in flight Again with the blaze

My legs are shakingHow do I survive the painEasy, don’t give up

Drunker than a skunkEvery weekend the sameOnce in four, a change

Today, turning pointNothing left to overcomeJust me and today.
