It's snowing covid We've all had to take shelter from the storm.
We're wearing gloves & masks As if it were freezing cold We can see everyone's breath Friends lovers strangers Our own carrying death.
Dangerous to go to the store Apocalyptic vibes
We're like magnets staying polar opposites pinballing around the room To avoid each other
Total intimacy Total isolation Perfect relationships for the 21st Century Everything's slowed down Tahoe blue skies Carbon ****** away Coyotes running through the streets The whole planet on furlough Creative projects Free at last The agoraphobics ******* Rich in time Poor in money We're reminded once again Nature bats last.
Ever since it started snowing covid.
Where we're going from here, We don't know Wishful thinking Careful planning It's all in the cellular snow And it just keeps on snowing its been said before The one thing we do know There's a bad moon on the rise But The seasons come and go Wars they come and go And the snow eventually blows away with the winds.
(Or at least when the vaccine blows in).
"Bad moon on the rise" "Bad Moon Rising" John Fogerty, 1969
