Hi, Joseph ,

I found your free verse poem in the Read and Review section.

Gosh, already been 5 years since the pandemic broke loose all around the world and took so many lives and caused so much trouble. It seems only yesterday, and there are still a lot of people suffering from long COVID. And a lot of kids still suffer from depression because of the social isolation in those days. So, it's not over. And then there is the fear of mutations still. I had my last shot a year and a half ago.

I lost a dear friend of my stepmom. They both got the bug at the same time. The friend died, my stepmom lived.

Your poem is very good. It has that sense of urgency we all felt when it was happening. It holds you by the throat and doesn't let go. Very compelling.

It contradicts everything conspiracy theorists believe in. I think it was and still is very harmful to be in that camp. I am glad you took the pandemic seriously.

Thank you for sharing. Keep on writing.
