Apr 2020
today. A celebrity, the old folks
in the nursing home, a baby that could
have had a bright future, a doctor
on the front-line. I wonder who will

be next. Your guess is as good
as mine. This virus doesn’t waste any
time. Today we say goodbye to John
Prine. But the Patriots are flying supplies

in with jets. And the shortage of ventilators
are a threat. If this continues there won’t
be any room in the hospitals. There setting
up tents in Central Park for the overflow. It

look like a scene from Mash, long
ago. Some think this is set-up by Trump
to protect kidnapped children from the deep
states. People these days are more delusional

than ever before. And more polarized
than the north and south pole. I lost friends
over this that insist that it’s all a hoax. Denial
is the first stage in grief – so many are in disbelief.
