#quarantine notes

This quarantine may make us healthier than ever.

I'm seeing more people out walking, jogging, riding bikes with their kids than ever...

[geocycle2010]

Not working from home, but social distancing...

I've never walked out in the middle of a movie, but I'm ready to walk out on this one...

SHEPHERD'S PIE  by Dave Bernasibo

the ninety-nine say, "Shepherd knows what to do, he'll scare the wolf away!" but the one says he does not believe.

the ninety-nine shun him, call him all sorts of names. they do not believe when he says he saw Shepherd feed the wolf last night.

LANGOY by Catherine Acuña

Ang akong pag langoy tambal sakong pag maoy, kay kada adlaw nko gi lamoy, gi lamoy sa kaguol kasakit og kakapoy.

ang tubig akong kasumbungan kung wala man gani dunggan na gusto mo hatag og kasolbaran.

kada buga sakong ginhawa mayta akong kasakit mo hawa og mo kuyog sa mga buwa.

Ang akong pag langoy mura ra nag gukod sakong pangandoy, kay kinahanglan ko mo bira, patid og utong kung mgkalisud.

inig human og pagawas sa mga kasakit na nag awas awas, mgpa lutaw lutaw sa tubig og maminaw sa mga pisik na gi duyogan sa mga shagit na hinay hinay na nipya it.

sometimes

I get to work and I turn the car off and just sit in silence, staring at concrete, eyes unfocused.

It's peaceful out of numbness

“Sweet Caroline” came on the radio as I was making my way back from my weekly sojourn to the grocery store.

I don’t even pay close attention to baseball and I miss baseball.
