Sweden's crisis day #3
Toiletpaper tier green, No rationing needed "yet" nor Sandpaper.
Food tier blue
Hair product tier blue
internet tier yellow
Electricity/water Tier blue
<low>Strange rumours have been spoken in between survivors about the pricey toilet paper have been seen being sold in the southern parts of the city. do these people know something that the northern don't know?.
Scavenger run needed later for the glorious toilet paper later.

If you're fooling yourself
Then whose fooling who?
You!
Here! I'm talking to you!
 
High wire, firewire, stressed, doomed, denigrated
Bush whacked, side-tracked, tired of being manipulated
Brain dead, paranoid, the mutant pact is activated.
Acting out... just automated

Forked tongues everywhere, can't believe a word they're
Sayin'
In the news, on the net, channel hopping, mind boggling
Trying hard to find solutions, constant media pollution
Mind control robot stare me in the face

Where do I look, where can I turn?
Always conquering the world, is there nothing we have
Learned?
I look in the mirror and what do I see?
Is it really my reflection or a channel on TV?

Whose foolin' who?
Whose foolin' who, well I can't believe my eyes
Whose foolin' who?
Can you trust what you see?
What you hear?
What you read in the papers, on TV?
CNN, CBS, UPN, TBN
When will it ever end?
Always living in the red
Are we the living dead?
This is living hell
Strange little world that's all in your head

What do you see when nothing is real?
Are you a dream or just a figment of my mind
Or a chemical reaction running rampant inside?
Truth is not what it used to be!

Whose foolin' who?
Whose foolin' who, well I can't believe my eyes

Whose foolin' who?
Whose foolin' who, well I can't believe my eyes
If you're fooling yourself
Then whose fooling who?
You!
Here! I'm talking to you!
 

Yours, in all ways, always.

All round the world I hear many an echo of fuck COVID-19
We all seem so inconvenienced by having to sit round and watch films or play on the internet.
Contacting all, reaching out to say please stay safe.
For the past hour I have been remembering every concert, every song, every dance with you.
Every moment, every laugh, every smile, tease and kiss with you.
Seems a moment ago.  Where have the years gone my dear one?
I got the news an hour ago and I join the chorus of fuck COVID-19.  This time its stole a piece of my heart.
Contacting all, reaching out to say please stay safe.  Stay safe so you can enjoy another concert, another song, another dance.  Stay safe and enjoy every moment, every laugh, every smile, tease and kiss.
 

Thank you to all of our healthcare workers. 

Good Night my love

twas the night before quarantine and
all through the town,
not a restaurant was open,
not a school-bus was found.
hand sanitizers were placed by
all doorposts with care,
in hopes that Corona would
never come there.
the children were swinging from
the crystal chandeliers, and
the stir-crazy babies were
almost in tears.
with everyone in health masks and
live updates on their screens,
we hunkered down and
waited for COVID-19.
for into our lives with
a sneeze and a cough
came a global pandemic and
a crash of the stocks.
away to the grocery
we all flew like a flash, and
bought all the toilet paper
for our personal stash.
as the moon slowly rose on
our fates and our fears,
what to my wandering mind
should appear?
in the absence of busyness
a new life taking form: in
the stillness of solitude, in
the silence of the storm.
in the magic of together and
home-bound company,
rediscovering connection in
our family.
so with the pup in her kennel and
the children in their beds,
new visions of adventures
now danced in my head!
the checklists could wait and
the bank accounts would be fine, for
we had been given the most
sacred gift of time.
so I gathered the markers and
crayons and paints,
I collected the nerf guns and
assembled board games.
with a wink and a smile I
moved on to schoolwork:
math facts and science and
vocabulary words.
I laughed as I thought it,
in spite of myself,
“what if quarantine can heal our
emotional health?”
if the birds are still singing and
if the flowers still bloom,
surely the sunshine can
overcome our gloom.
if we set aside fear and
choose kindness instead,
maybe we’ll all begin to realize
we have nothing to dread.
I tucked back into bed and
smiled up at the moon, for
a peace had replaced the
impending doom.
so take heart and take hope
through this curious plight, and
“happy quarantine to all”
until we’re allowed to
reunite.
