staying dry

the tents
on the side of the road
sag under the rain.

my friend says
we’re staying dry.
i say that’s good to hear.

meanwhile i’m reading
a lot about the markets
and banks and businesses. bailouts. priorities.

i’d like to see a trillion dollars
or even just a billion (hell a million)
distributed down here by the tracks.

loosen those hundred dollar bills
like butterfly wings,
land them in every palm.

The poem was short, but it does makes sense. It is a good representation of what’s happening right now in the world. Because of the virus called “COVID-19”, it seems like the world has stopped and everyone was trying not to catch the virus. It is deadly and terrifying and all of us want to be saved. But there are people who cannot protect themselves and I worry about them. I just hope that the government has better plans for these people, and we should keep on protecting ourselves too!
