the drive-thru speaker
with a note taped over it:
We are closed
because I just quit this job
this thankless low-paying job
with his fist raised high
the manager shouting out
to masked workers
one dollar an hour
pandemic pay hike
Added: Two Hundred and Twenty-Fifth Entry
this speed racing
between Covid variants
and second shots --
UN aid workers stare
at one rickshaw of rice
Added: Two Hundred and Twenty-Sixth Entry, inspired by The New Yorker June 21 article, "What Will Become of the Pandemic Pets?'
one pet fad
after another ...
in TV's light
my robo-dog and I
sink into the loveseat
