Pandemic

Man has always been so confined

Like a name clung to a person

And he has thought of the golden eagle all along

Man has always been so confined…

And it is only now that he has realized it.

Man has always been so lonely in the crowd

Like a scarecrow in the cornfield

And he has thought of mingling with the unseen in the space

Man has always been so lonely in the crowd…

And it is only now that he has felt it.

Man has always been so masked

Like a Brutus hiding his true colors

And he has spoken of transparency all along…

Man has always been so masked

And it is only now that he has seen it.
