March reverently through these green repentant doors,
These holy portals to grace and absolution,
Into a stain-glassed sanctuary...

Lavish Praise Not Sought
Painful self actualization
quickly brights to light
paltry reasons (with or
without rhyme) a desolate sight
within blinkered mindseye hindsight

grotesque grimace shocks with affright
desolate landscape 
precipitated when airtight
vacuum sealed sequestered,
muckraked, furloughed...

which past existence now doth bite
back with a vengeance...

Lockdown
Lockdown, shutdown,
shops are closing all around;

Testing and tracing,

Masks at the ready,
Screens fitted and steady.

People are furloughed, government...

Memories,
  and dreams overcast”

Leaves fall,
  branches reach for the sky

Winter clouds gather,
  snow starts to fly

Furloughed—the seeds
