The Year Of Living Dangerously

It's touch and go out there. Well it used to be once. Not any more. Certainly not today. This month. This year. This deadly year. No playful kisses goodbye. No warm hugging. No friendly handshakes. No physical interaction any more. Keep your distance. Your social distance. At all times. Wear a mask. Your mask. And try to feel better about it. Or try hard to feel better about it. About things. About life. About the loved ones around you. Then about yourself. Asking yourself every day how much longer. Just how much longer. Just got to knuckle down and take it. To endure. The unendurable. Like everyone else. Stay healthy. Stay alive. This dangerous year will soon end. A new one to soon dawn. With a cure to make it better. An injection of hope. To get things back on track. No more masks. For everyone. We hope.
