Curved apertures
And six foot poles.
Alone time is just time
Because there is no one else.
Who knew that a shut in
Could feel so desolate
So inconsolably distant
And still be just fine.
Can an entire population
Suffer from cabin fever?
The world’s always been crazy
But now the people follow suit.
Convenience trumps altruism,
Death over discomfort,
“People die everyday”,
Even when they don’t have to.
