Another Year Passes By

Another Year Passes By I look askance as the days pass by even as they slip into nightgowns and then it's the chirp chirp, caw caw up and on to daily chores displays on laptop glued to the screen see-saw with indexes outcomes writ large on the face and the nagging back pain adding to the queue ailments on the prowl in propitious frames yoga and pranayama apart from vaccines to the rescue the swarming germs on the radar, family members soldiers in trenches and bunkers money trails or terror attacks occupy spaces in brain cells can't just throw out the pictures ferry them to bed fall asleep with nightmares that leave a pounding pulse as a wrist-band records the reams.
