We Tried to Warn You

A Poem

Photo by Aneta Foubíková on Unsplash

What is it about a May day in quarantine

listening to Lana Del Rey that makes me want to get dressed up in

my fanciest of things just to sit on my tiny balcony

with a glass of wine being fine with being fine

being fine with not knowing what is next

or when is next what is after

all this. As long as we

have an air of smooth

luscious pissed off

calm grace

the ship can go down the building can burn.

We tried to warn you.
