Every day
I am swarmed
by fear.
So many fears.
Fears of pain
and death
and isolation.
So in my home
I hide...
behind conversions
behind entertainment
behind a virtual getaway.
I run and hide
because I know what
lies past my walls
above my ceiling
and in the news.
I know of the danger,
the panic,
the reality.
Yet here I sit.
Unable to escape
my very own
haven
of escapism.
