Senryu to you Thursday: “Stains”

Stains

Emptying your /

old pockets, I find dead masks /

stained with your phlegm.

Photo and poem: “Not a curse”

Not a curse

Get vaccinated. Wear a mask.

Neither are difficult tasks.

Do it for yourself and your friends to see.

Show compassion and responsibility.

It’s not a trick and it’s not a shame.

Treat yourself and others the same.

Kindness and courtesy are not a curse.

Being sick or dead would be far worse.

Rise up now and do your part.

A mask and a shot are moral places to start.
