Perched

Honestly
I think most of us are sitting here
Perched at World's End
Waiting for the dastardly cliffhanger to
Reveal itself
 
So every day we fight
Each in our own special way
To find a reason
To get up
 
Let's keep it a buck
The Pandemic has left an indelible stain on us
Drained us...pained us
Caned us emotionally...spiritually
Whipped us into this condition
 
Where we fight not to drown
In a sea of disdain...distrust...despair...disgust
Swimming aimlessly as
A pawn in somebody else's endgame
 
...there's more but I'll
Stop here...
