A Willing Prisoner

Micropoetry

work and home,
limited travel only . . .
can’t see my family,
wouldn’t risk the park.
can’t visit friends,
it’s no longer only
lonely after dark.

I'll show my badge if
I get pulled over, draft a
letter. "Here, this is proof
that I am going to
or coming from work."

a willing prisoner
to save lives.
