I’m watching my favourite band
Play past live shows
From the comfort of my couch
This soft fleece blanket
Couldn’t compare to the comfort
That warm, perspiring skin
Brushing against one another brings
I turn the volume up
As loud as I can bear
Then stand and close my eyes
Letting the rhythm of the music
Push my body gently from side to side
Each beat bringing my hands
Closer to touching the sky

So relatable. I do this a lot when I want to tune out the trouble of the world around me.

There’s a lot of pandemic poetry out there at the moment but this one stands out from the rest. In another life I thought I was a musician, so this felt close to home. Beautiful writing!
