harbor barber

The day so far had gone pleasant enough

The whole virus thing was pretty rough

On and on the stories continue

People forget they’re made of more than sinew 

Looking for ways out of what you couldn’t see 

Like religion in the 13th century

Forgot how good it felt to just be

Without you there is no me 

From our fears we try to flee

Poems never orderly, more than he

Storms at sea, or in the harbor

Hair gone so skip the barber 

Worried it all away.  Forgot how to spell P.L.A.Y.

But just as he lay all set to decay and start feeding the hay

It dawned on him how useless dismay was

Only this moment to say how the day was
