(Memories, 2020-22: COVID Chronicles)



Daybreak is greeted by exiting dream of pre-COVID years (it was only yesterday, or so it seemed). I think about what to wear; the thought quickly dissipates. Boxer shorts are very, very comfortable.. why change?
Siri does not yet know how to interpret the word COVID; however, "covert" may be a good word it is misinterpreting, or covertly interpreting.
We have been in this isolation mode for over two weeks. It has made for a strange behavioral patterns, such as human avoidance, sanitizing inanimate vectors, etc.

Από όνειρο ξύπνησα,
μήπως πραγματοποιηθεί;
Waking from a dream
will it materialize?

WHO’S W.H.O. ?
Select players,
dictating policy,
germinating seeds of distrust
and dark crops?

Ποιος ακούει;
Το πονηρό χαμόγελο
κρύβει ο σκοτεινός θάλαμος φρενώνM
Who’s listening?
The sneaky smile
hidden in dark cerebral tunnel

MONOTONY OF MONASTICISM
Myopic and melodic,
imagination meandering
New iterations of intimacy,
in maize of constriction,
personal space redefined
Periods of exuberance,
escape complete,
replaced by reality,
only to repeat
Differentiation of days,
what is meaning?
Existentialist, yet esoteric,
limited by mental threshold
Opportunity to reflect
meaning of life;
Priorities,
not labels and expectations,
catharsis of brainwashing
Mental abbey,
no garden plots
Existentialist memories,
the only preserves

Αντίληψη ελευθερίας
Ελευθερία, κρυμμένη στο δάσος
ιών και βίον
βιασμός εγκέφαλου
Ψυχική πλάκωση
Anticipation of freedom
Freedom, hidden in the woods
of viruses and life
Mental abuse
outstretched soul

Tree of Relationship
rooted in insecurity
where fruit never ripens
Δέντρο σχέσεων
βασισμένο σε ανασφάλεια..
άγουροι καρποί

JULY 2022
Twenty-seven months later, we are in a new phase, no less frustrating…
COVIDOLOGIA
Covid Chronicles
Treated as if lepers,
where socializing
was a dance of paranoia
Σαν να είμαστε λεπροί,
οι κ οινωνικές σχέσεις
παρανοϊκός χορός


I’m confused — was this an earlier entry, or do you have COVID now? (I’m hoping not!) And has it affected you both? (I’m also hoping not!) And are you in Greece or the U.S.?
