a hole cut out of the universe – v2

as if all of our days were rolled flat

a sheet of buttermilk-biscuit dough

as if a giant hand was hovering

over our days, our lives,

like the sword of Damocles

 

a hole cut out of the universe

minutes turning to days, to years

our lives seemingly in statis

furtively going forward, living,

a cut-off, truncated life

 

the year of the pandemic

locked down, masked up

lost days, opportunities,

not venturing out, frozen,

in our confusion and fear
