hiding eggs
we’re hiding our face

Instead of
sitting in church
we’re sitting at home alone

Instead of
wearing bonnets
we’re wearing masks

Instead of
traveling to our relatives
we’re travel to our kitchen and living room
then back

Instead of
conversing in person
we’re conversing through screens

Instead of
wondering if Aunt Matilda will pinch our cheeks
we’re wondering if someone we know will get sick
and if they do will they live
