Covid continues to dog the vaccinated and unvaccinated alike. It is both a topic of concern or a subject to downplay, especially in the north woods.
Illusion
Some of Winslow Homer's clouds
belong to the sunrises. Opalescent
conchs of early morning.
If he were painting now
in the north woods, wisps of steam
above a lake shaded periwinkle
would beckon.
And in that mist he might place
an outline of a boat with the smudge
of a fisherman casting,
unconcerned with whispers
of a plague swirling around him.
