• A Coronavirus Poem: War Hands

  Posted at 11:53 am by Mrs. Ram Jam, on March 28, 2020

  

  declaring war on my hands
  has left them raw–
  they’ve been scrubbed too hard with sandpaper
  and a wolf has chewed them bloody with its murderous maw

  COVID-19
  has corroded my hands by soaking them in gasoline

  I have war hands
  and it’s left me raw
