#eightdogs
: ( : ( --- : ) : )
Eyes have opened
i am wakened
now longing for steaming coffee
to shrug off lethargy, and anxiety,
shortly, the severity of today's statistics
will air...how do we fight inner hysterics?
we watch, side by side, real and fake news,
we've plunged deeper, there's more to lose,
we miss fresh air, our jobs, our daily income,
in desperation, we ask, "where art thou, freedom?"
while medical and non-medical front-liners,
tackle and battle another corona-ed 24 hours...
morning birds' tweets, the crowing of rooster
blend with the riotous hum of the old washer
eight dogs chase a stray cat...one is ahead,
while still biting a piece of tasty 😋 bread...
i hear somebody sweeping...clearing
the backyard from the dogs' doings
my morning
is ongoing 😷
