Pandemic Poetry
March 16, 2020
A worldwide coronavirus pandemic is going on. A few poems have really resonated with people around me during this time. Here they are:
- "Pandemic" by Lynn Ungar
- "Wash Your Hands" by Dori Midnight
- "Lockdown" by Richard Hendrick
- "Once the World was Perfect" by Joy Harjo. Seen on Facebook on March 24.
- "When people say, 'we have made it through worse before'" by Clint Smith Seen on Twitter sometime the last week of March
On Thursday I will be hosting a Zoom meetup for some friends to talk about poetry for 40 minutes, the time limit of the Zoom free tier. I wonder if someone will bring one of these poems?
