Closed

And suddenly life closed shop
Food was no longer enjoyed in restaurants
And take out was just another form of
Social distancing.
I mourned the loss of community pool
Where I let go of miseries and floated like a
Dolphin feeling lighter each time to the point of
Laughter, a rarity these days.  I heard a high tech took over and turned it into office space, as if there is' t enough of it around -- heartless capitalism. Life s cruel to the have-nots
and this pandemic has clear conscience on its induced depression. 
 Bring on soul of the time to stop this maddening disease.
