Kicked in the ribs. Harassed At Vaccine Sites. Health Care Workers Are Tired Of New 'Normal'

Encounter with a Roundabout Karen.


If you have roundabouts in your area you will understand. "Karen" was driving really fast to the yield sign. I was in the
roundabout and laid on the horn. "Karen" jammed on the brakes and yielded.
When we were out of the roundabout "Karen" stared riding my bumper. Told my niece, get the camera on her phone ready.
Pulled over and "Karen" stopped, I put the window down and she started screaming. "Karen" said, I know you thought I
was going to fast and wasn't going to stop. My niece started laughing then "Karen" drove off mad when she saw the niece was videoing the freak out.
People are crazy, be safe and have the video recorder on your phone ready.

Fear Inoculum

Immunity long overdue
Contagion, I exhale you
Naive I opened up to you
Venom in mania

Now, contagion I exhale you
Deceiver says, he says you belong to me
You don't want to breathe the light of the others
Fear the light
Fear the breath
Fear the others for eternity
But I hear them now, inhale the clarity
Hear the venom, the venom in what you say, inoculated

Bless this immunity
Bless this immunity
Bless this immunity

Exhale, expel
Recast my tale
Weave my allegorical elegy

Enumerate
All that I'm to do
Calculating steps away from you
My own mitosis
Growing through delusion from mania

Exhale, expel
Recast my tale, weave my…
