in this fight
the bright treads lightly
sparing fools
enlightment a causualty
as ad hoc plans breeds havoc
vindictiveness clings to its perch

I think it’s safe to say not enough is known about the corona virus. Is it airborne or contact or is it both? Also, it feels like there is a true “Typhoid Mary” element to this.
Does the strategies to contain this carry a hint of “ring a ring o roses, pocket full of posies…”?
We are flailing in the wind. There are believers and non believers. As the politicians do battle, argue, verbally assault each other – it does what it does. Kill people!

from a fitful dream
I wake staring at night sky
on this sleepless night
in the cool darkness, a peace
a setting free of worries

This is a mural. I took this on the inside of a mall in Brooklyn.
This is growing on a part of the trunk of a tree. That yellow stuff is spreading. In person it looks a little gross. Not so much in a photo with a bit of editing.
This is another shot of another part of the same tree
inanimate –
being held in time by nature
an odd interplay
