We all spend
our lives now
trying not
to become
data points
on a graph.

If you think after
Coronavirus,
corporations
will stop
exploiting
workers,
will stop
trashing
the world,
will stop
supporting
wars,
will stop
buying
elections,
will start
paying
taxes,
you’re living
in a parallel
universe.
Worth
remembering
in these
frightening
times – all
imaginary
friends are
equally
imaginary.
The Butcher Bird
singing,
beautifully,
from the old
dead tree
this morning,
doesn’t know about
coronavirus.
The road
outside my farm,
always busy
with commuter
traffic, is
empty, this
morning, as
far as the
eye can see.
Any day
without
coronavirus
is a good
day.
