home and in self-imposed quarantine
soon to venture back out
to the stars, the blue sky, the river, and the woods.

beings and worlds are quarantined from each other.

to have safely traveled from star to star.’

little dark house.
back in the day
when my girls were little
if there was a power outage
I would tell them
we were just like the family
in ‘the little house on the prairie’
we could pretend we were them
have lots of fun
it was okay for a while
until it got old
the novelty wore off
when there was
no pa playin’ the fiddle
no butter to churn
no humming and singing
no stitchin’ to be done
no cows to milk
then we just had to wait it out
and it was not fun.
