Brain Fog
The face
on TV
WHAT’S HIS
NAME
Had Covid
two or three months ago
HIS
BROTHER IS THE GOVERNOR
His
symptoms linger on
HE WEARS
HIS COURAGE
Among them
brain fog
INSIDE HIS
FEAR
He tells
me
HE HIDES
HIS FEAR
It may
never go away
INSIDE HIS
CONFIDENCE
Fear and
rage take my place
WHAT IF?
It never
goes away
IT NEVER
GOES AWAY?
What cruel
fate is this?
HOW DO YOU
MAINTAIN A FACE?
Twenty
million strong and counting
HOW DO YOU
STAY STRONG?
Lost in a
fog of tangled dendrites
KNOWING
YOU HAVE LOST FOREVER
An endless
maze of uncertainty
THAT WHICH
MADE YOU
Knowing
you will never again know
YOU
You
(the
president says the virus
is 99%
harmless)
