Biologically Satiated
Anxiety for everyone;
doctor,
Nurse and patient
Nasty bug full of contagion
Not a bug at all
just strands of proteins’
survivors doing what they can
wearing their immunity
like a hazmat suit
they are armour plated
bioligically satiated
we all wear our masks
some just have ones that you can’t see
Others wear them in hidden places
Covering their heart
Obscuring their feelings and their faces
Our basic emotions are raw and bare
Fear, anxiety and love
All collide in the days that stretch on
Striving to succeed or to escape
in this grand game you are merely a pawn

That’s so beautiful, Cal. You really are a poet. Have you written more poems like these? You should share them. I love the name of the poem – lets hope they are immune and biologically satiated.

Thank you Marie, I have some I am working on. I saw the news special and the people were talking about having a plate of armour of immunity, it inspired me… Thanks for the comment and I appreciate your feedback
