Viral Sonnet by kellykrebs published on 2020-04-11T13:45:55Z Words: Louisa Castner Performed by Evan Tyler Wilson Within the walls of sheltered-in retreat we global citizens air-kiss our friends and relatives across the park, the street: we send a muffled shout upon the wind. Our dogs and cats aerobicize our lungs and atrophied extremities, so far away from Lifetime and the gym — so young we felt before the virus came to shore. And politicians duke it out while you and I see exponential cases climb. These infiltrating germs aren’t red or blue. United we will buy each other time. And each and ev’ry day it must be seen: how love and life survive in quarantine. Genre Folk & Singer-Songwriter
