Granada Theater, Emporia, Kansas

A JOURNEY OF NO DISTANCE

 

A vacuum of chatter

A detachment of friends

A tavern of echoes

A grocery store of disappointment

 

A temperature of fate

A fever of connection

Streets of abandon

A round globe of loneliness

 

A pneumonia of worry

A panic of hoarders

A calendar of cancellations

An unmeeting of minds

 

An isolation of kindness

A mask of heroes

A shelf of read books 

A radius of six feet

 

A Zoom of studies

A contagion of graves

A herald of new angels

 

A failure of leadership

A half-life of fear
