Drama Horror Tragedy

Life Parked

Life Parked

Year 2020 saw no movement

Visibility zero on windshields

Coated with layers of dust

Hand brakes hitched up

Ignition switch turned off

Parked in basements

for nine long months

Like a pregnant woman

carrying her baby full term

And beyond!


Life halted by a disguised 

Microscopic road bump

Old ways disappeared 

Draped in a mist shawl 

Introducing changed lifestyle 

Coined "The new norm"


Year 2021, one thought 

would shift to 'D' mode

Stubbornly stays stuck on 'P'

Life moving only on 'R' 

Like caught in a time warp

And I discovered a new me

Hitherto, calm and at peace

Full of angst as more bumps appear

Catching people unawares

Performing the slow death dance
