Masked, I leave the house
How can breathing make my nose
Oleaginous?
We used to say we fed
On air, our love sufficing.
Give me that bagel.
Tsunami sends me
Tides of zombie images
Netflix night again.
Masked, you frown at me
As we pass on the sidewalk
Good morning mother!
Let's watch some Covid
We say, laughing, and switch on
Not so funny now.
