Live Radioevery light casts a shadow;
every shadow lives from light
six-foot safety zone
we are conceived in embrace
we are borne by embrace
we are born from embrace
by embrace are we nurtured
in embrace do we marry
and thrive
and if lucky
we die embraced
now we are
enjoined from embrace
force to live
like lepers of circumstance
how long can we survive
alone and skin-hungry
before we die
shriveled of soul?
corona
this sub-micro-organism
has paralyzed a planet
and in our standstill
and from our careful distances
we breathe the clearer air
practice patience and prudence
see each other in finer point
treat each other more gently
embrace from afar
rediscover forgotten nature
fauna wild and tame
feel again the soul-healing
of flowers
which are said to be
the smiles of the gods
as we live now
in corona
halo of light
