Pandemonium 2020


In an open shell I'd be a nut.
Peeping out, but still out of touch.
Haunted by conformity and normalcy, abrupt .
Taunted by adversity and programmed fear.
Left no choice but to lead the way so I stand clear.
Speeding through a time wave, that calculates my distance.
We can't be together but together, we are socially distant.
Watching me, to only investigate my vision.
And everything I wanted is no longer granted permission.
Wash your hands and don't forget to do the dishes!
Those who were once forgotten are now
"Thee Essential " As they risk it !
Climbing though, as if this was the last step on the ladder. Utilize your positive thoughts in a time where love and family matters.
And those you thought you knew ...
SURPRISE “You NEVER!
Breaking through against all odds.
Because we can no longer abide by division.
And even the odd numbers still matter.
Equally as a whole, we still must gather
in an open shell...
A bunch of nuts, altogether.
