Spring 2020: Ode to Breathe
I'm exhausted, down-right bone tired
It is just beyond me right now
Breathe in (1,2,3,4), Hold, Breathe Out
Coronavirus-“I can’t breathe”
Ventilators?
Quarantining, social distancing, people distancing
Death and Destruction
Covid-19-Masks
Breathe
Slavery to Modern day lynching
Protest, anti-racism
New Normal
Undoing racism
Allies, Advocates, Caucuses
“I can’t breathe”
Packed in ships, bottles, syringes
Vaccines, Post-convalescence
Double, Double, Toil and Trouble
When will it stop? How do I make it stop?
Contact tracing-“I can’t breathe”
Breathe
Will it ever change? Has it ever changed?
Is there herd immunity from racism?
“I can’t breathe”
Breathe in (1,2,3,4), Hold, Breathe out
