Long Sanitizing Poems

The world outside my window

I view with one eye open 

while laying on my pillow

Birds are chirping and singing their songs

perched upon their tree of choice 

they know where they belong

I smell the coffee brewing...

Harry (written by Steven Cooke)

He stairs through the window
In wheelchair he knows,
Gabriel is just a pause behind him.
His last duty, to open a door in his mind
Of memories torn from 1917, where he left,
Jack Fred...

The new name of the horror
portrays the demon "COVID-19".
Entrapping the mankind with its enigma,
terrorizing the rush of blood
it comes with its half-scarred faces, 
all in blood and blemish.
Every little thing is screwed up
from the very...

even though the world has changed
the center of my jolly is still present
nothing has been rearranged
the vibe of the joy is still effervescent

even though the mask is required
the intention of my greeting is still vibrant...

dad you unrolled the hose in the late afternoon
when venus slips by the moon,
fresh water for cemetery cypress,
green monster in the middle of the yard,
then I see you smoking carelessly among the plants,
the spiraling smoke...

We all watched the news in disbelief;
Horror stories of death and grief.
We sat in our homes, safe and sound;
All the while, it was coming around.
People just keep asking, "Why?"
Hearing it went global; still we deny.

Not for me the modern way to embrace,
Everything and everybody,
Using lip service to deliver,
To recipients never met,
From cultures unknown.

Not for me the modern way to embrace,
That is not heartfelt,
Is born out of fear,
Pretends to be...

Our world is under relentless attack
We all need to be careful about the impact
Of this virus on us. Be strong, healthy and positive
About defeating “Hate”. Be active. Be proactive
Wash our hands and brains and stay...

Our world has changed in a blink of an eye,
For overnight, it seems, our loved ones have said

A Novel Bus Ride

First week of schools' lockdown
Got to the terminal in town
Surveying the scene around me
Detecting a sense of solemnity
Got unto the bus quietly
The lady in the seat glanced suspiciously
Jamming to the side more...

Yet another Coronavirus poem...

Songwriters are composing original tunes.
Poets are writing to cope with the gloom.
Masks on our faces.
Dread in our hearts.
Please don’t slip up and...

and, they will continue
swindling slightly,
as they will pretend,
that they are right,
they do like to be 
well-recognized,
but will never recognize
the other,
who was said to them
in church to be their brother.
and, it doesn't matter,
for how long
you've been...

Sally Smith and COVID


Sally Smith has lost her once radiant smile.
She won't even eat or traverse outside her door.
She was once cordial and had a joyous personal style,
Sally is so smitten with news about said...

Once again we’re wedged in a wrinkle
of time in our lives; a wrinkle that can’t
be so easily ironed out and pressed away.
Yet the ironing board of solutions remain up
and challenging steam continues to gush out;
however,...

Whatever happened to in depth analysis?
Whatever happened to in depth discussion?
Whatever happened to in depth research?
Whatever happened to in depth investigation?

Are we doomed to a life in the shallows for millennia to come?
Are we doomed...

Once a common fixture
in every home’s backyard, 
the dilemma of what to call
the  “outhouse” is still a mixture

of debate and prudery.
A less offensive name
than its vulgar alternative,
“s--thouse,”is not likely to change.

Humans aren’t very good...

CORONALITY (2)

The world speaks in mournful tone,
The times keeps me up on it's own
Leading to crash but thought beckons,
The blueprint to pay for many tomorrows.
I swirl spoon in watery calamitious broth, tasteless,
Sit speechless, government powerless,
Aviation...

We came together looking
For a forever going nowhere. 
Her loss, my loss
Same loss: true love.
We came together smoking
In pipes and filters
Making love through stares
Into each other's eyes..
Making adjustments
Drinking coffee, living
In exhausted work weeks
That seemed like...

Restless and unhappy,am I!
To be so desirous to live totally free, under blue skies.
Not living one day more, behind closed doors.
So fed up with sanitizing floors and doors.
People in masks look totally ridiculous.
Perhaps some love...

PLEASE DO NOT PANIC

LOOKING OUT FOR OTHERS, AS FOR YOU...

Morning Thoughts On Fear
Written: by Miracle Man
3/18/2020

Can being overly precautious lead to fear,
stifling our thinking, making us seem robotic.
Anxiety is the birth and its premier,
and apprehension makes life become chaotic.

Indecisiveness and stagnation fear has caused,

What pharmaceutical hypocrisy
Blurred doctor patient relations
Continuous with dealor-junkie satiation 
Arent't we living to eat?

The safety regulators will come down harsh
Trickling down their axiom motif
With Ronald Reagan collectible trading cards

Who's poison beef still feeds
The vacant lunch...

We had another lockdown,
Just a month that time,
Now on a tier system are you 1, 2 or 3?
Guidelines were the same as before ..... mostly,
Did people follow them? Or just ignore them?
Some rules twisted to...
