Driving through Uptown
Past an armed national guard
Out for a vaccine

Friday’s clock pauses
It flips around sensing space
A weekend warm-up

On promotion day
I spaced where I parked the car
And the boss watched it

On director eve
Slide consultant job aside
Flip to a new page

A work happy hour
In a booming restaurant
I don’t miss that noise

Birthday with curfew
Uptown covered in plywood
In the cold damp air

A breakfast surprise
Made by a young adult chef
This parent just smiled

Throw the task list out
And embrace simple free time
Let regrets be damned

New school COVID case
Why can’t we just hunker down
For a few more months?

The experts explain
How a knee to the neck kills
But sure, not murder
