preservation through destruction

next June...

it's either you or
Los Angeles, 
something is happening;
unless COVID kills us all. 

then in July...

I'll be back in NYC
for the poetry festival 
and coffee on 27th street;
unless COVID kills us all. 

before all that in January...

heading to Wyoming
to freeze my butt off
and save my job;
unless COVID kills us all. 

heading to the post office today...

to mail the love of my life
some books,
a hammer and some smooches;
unless I get into a terrible car accident on the way there.
