Back To Normal

back to normal holds a hopeful ring —
    presently, the ding spurs us into a boxing spar

our refuge - our home
    becomes a multipurpose cage

school, workplace, nursing station, cafeteria
     ailments scold, yes

we're principals, doctors too.
        presently, the ding spurs us into a boxing spar

back to normal    holds a hopeful ring

I agree with Victor. Troubled times ahead. Especially economically. Enjoyed your poem Kim.
