i wrote this a month ago to the day

unable to imagine what was to come

 




the state of lynn

 

i couldn't be more tired   i can't sleep

i'm worried about 

 

i don't know what i'm worried about

marketa is asleep

 

the sleep of the innocent   and   ha   i thought

i was the innocent 

 

the city has gone crazy   business as usual    except 

when it comes to hand sanitizer

 

now we're supposed to work from home

and my 401 k is in a death spiral

 

but that's not it   everything just seems wrong

it's very vague

 

i'm sitting in the dark 

worrying

I remember this time,
It was a time that's still in my mind.
Thanks for sharing,
I think we were all in the same boat,
But mine capsized.

Everything does seem wrong, and we all are engulfed in darkness, yet hoping for the sun to peep from behind the dark clouds. A finely crafted work, Jim. Sums up the present situation; the readers can relate to Lynn's state.
