LIFE, LOVE, AND ART IN THE TIME OF CORONA:
BEAUTIFUL
DREAMER
THIS IS THE VIRAL EQUALIZER
WITHIN THE TIMES OF SEETHING FIRE
IT HITS THE MEEK AND KILLS THE HIGHER
IT SINGS THE CRIES OF BLEEDING HEARTS
AS THE STRUCTURE IMPLODES, AND THE SYSTEM DECAYS
WHAT IS LEFT BUT TO EAT FROM THE SAME SINGLE PLATE
NOT A PENNY CAN HEAL WHAT THIS HUNT WON’T FORGIVE
AND IT’S TIME TO REVEAL HOW THE REST OF US LIVE
SOME ARE KNOCKED TO THEIR KNEES, OTHERS RISE TO THEIR FEET
JUST TO MOCK ALL THE GREED THAT’S BECOME OBSOLETE.
