Catch It

Catch what

Catch it

the big bug

that has stalked us for

two years now

With every small chance we take

it seems

we toy with the Reaper

snub our noses

But what is the alternative

To remain cloistered

within our dwellings

closed off but safe

More and more it happens that

I just open the front door

lean out

breathe

and look at the sky

then back inside

Maybe it’s just winter

that’s doing this to me

Spring will be better

For sure
