[no need to check your audio settings: the soundtrack is silence]
Sheltering in Place
with nowhere to go
why get dressed up? there’s no need
in rooms bright and still
a beautiful world
on this side of the window
desert knowledge blooms
when thoughts brim over
with sad tales, the rain as well
falls in long chapters
clouds lace the mountains
while shore birds ride the sea wind
no more time for talk
