tip-toeing through the tulips
trying something different
tuna on toast or blackened salmon
catfish from the mississippi
you wonder what else
is on the menu
perhaps something from the sky
the make-shift beach isn’t too far off
I imagine it’ll be jam-packed
due to the lock-down
it’s been a week or so since the last
loudspeaker messages
local birds looking a little less spooked
deviations are aplenty this day & age
it’s simply a matter of choosing
one over innumerable others
then there’s always a day-trip to illinois
visit a brewery & dispensary
back just in time for the setting sun
may two thousand twenty
