The New Normal
broadway is dark
stores are closed
social distancing
is imposed
stay locked inside
shelter in place
six feet away
don’t touch your face
disinfect your hands
wash your clothes
is that a sniffle?
elbow your nose
binge on Netflix
all day long
hold back tears
try to stay strong
watch the news
who’s to blame?
pointing fingers
calling names
missing the hugs
of family and friends
wondering how
this all may end
life has changed
you know it’s temporary
we must have faith
so very scary
our new normal
since covid 19
a viral pandemic
the world has never seen
