Friends visiting friends.
Laughing, playing games.
Having a good time.
Joining in the fun.
Laughing about the days
when we couldn’t visit each other.
That is the dream to look forward to in these days of isolation!

My biggest problem is
I over use the same word choice
to describe multiple dilemmas
Such as
The point is
that I am a creature of habit
and when confronted
or merely excited
I observe that this is
My biggest problem
Things start to break
needing to be replaced
or repaired.
Things go wrong
and solutions need to be found.
Times get tougher
because problems get compounded.
The universe is not sentient
but sometimes
like now
it feels like it is pranking us
and I for one
do not like it!
Healthy enough to run away
Yet I won’t because….
I do not like being disappointed
though that seems my current state.
Things go wrong
and even when anticipated
things still get worse
and so this horrible limbo
of what is happening and how am I going to fix it?
Or can I?
When an old friend
is not the same as what you remember
you see how they have changed.
It is also a chance to see yourself
as someone who has grown
or slid back into old habits.
Do you fall back into the habits
when you last hung out together?
Or do you gently remind yourself
that they are a friend
and the purpose to follow bad impulses.
Even if they used to be fun.
The battles are all in mind
I fight every day for sanity
Any semblance of normalcy
My anxiety sends surprise raids
While my nerves betray me
The chemicals of mind
Unbalance my emotional state
As I struggle to get to my feet
I know my name
And before it is lost
I will shout it out
So others will take it over
And that is how I hope to leave a legacy
When a constant changes
and you have to figure why.
The worst is trying to figure out
what to do with the new dilemma.
Everything you want to do
makes everything worse.
And the worse it gets
the crazier the dream
until finally
you wake up
and still have
five hours
of the night to supposedly rest.
Obviously,
you won’t be dreaming.
Because Earth is doomed.
We are destroying it.
Nobody can do enough
when there are those who do not care
and they have money.
It is the people who hurt those
to get more than their fair share
that make this world a place of disgrace.
Paw on face
~ You should be sleeping!
Toy on pillow
~ It makes me feel better.
Nips on shoulder
~ No talking aggressively!
Sitting in front of the computer
~ Pick up the laser pointer and play with me!
Staring into my soul
~ You belong to me!
Someone will see it.
A candle in the window is traditional
but the modern era fines you for fire regulations.
Instead send a message
text, call or say Hello to your neighbour.
Be the person who smiles at strangers
and compliments on their choice in fashion.
The world needs more light
since the stars are so hard to see
we need something to guide us.
