Heroes Know How
A hole in the ground
Unmarked boxes
With bodies inside
This no war atrocity
It’s pandemic New York style
Enclosed spaces claustrophobic crowds
Perfect breeding conditions
City that never sleeps
Shutdown
Closed to save lives
Sidewalk beat empty
Nature’s biology winning
Survival mission starts here
One step forward

Bravo, AP! The entire poem was a wonderful narrative of survival! But, that last line drove it home!
