Ode to Unraveling

The world is unraveling
as the virus sweeps across the land.
People are dying
in seemingly insurmountable ways.
Meister Eckhart wrote, “Unless you let go, you cannot re-enter.”
Now, at the crossroads of pandemic and death,
we are called to take up the challenge,
to practice the protocols
and believe there are better days ahead.
This too will pass.
Yes, this too will pass.
