CAMELOT FANTASIES

Myriad of purples and pinks
Across the horizon
The sky blending with the ocean
Strange how something incredibly beautiful
Chemical reactions of our ozone
The damage we’ve done to the Earth, stinks

Heavily isolated during this pandemic of the virus
Social distancing of this quarantine
Has led to violence
The cries within the walls of retirement homes
Whimpering mixed with screams of pain
Not so much from the ailments
Much more is the fear of dying alone
Missing the hugs of a loved one
Confusion not subtle in this illusion
Memory fails of good times
The negativity prevails in this painful strain

The veil will lift
What scarier is what hides behind the curtain
The dark magic as tears running
Like the rain against the window pane
Uncertainty blows out any balance
Fear inertly frozen stoicism
Screaming silently at the unknown
Each hour goes by
The norm is not the same
What we thought we knew
The life we thought we grew
Has gone bye bye
