That time when I lived in NYC during the worst of COVID (they were parking reefer trucks outside overfill hospital morgues and burying hundreds of people a day in unmarked graves) and distracted myself from fear and dread by building Pandemic Warning Masks. #throwbackthursday #covidart #making

A year into this pandemic, and up until now I haven't been able to write about it much, or create anything from it. It's been too overwhelming, too constantly in mind. It's like when a beloved shows me something on his phone but holds it too close to my face and my eyes can't focus on it - everything blurs together, indistinct and intensely uncomfortable. It's only when I gently nudge his hand back another 6 or 8 inches that it comes into focus.

It's like that, except the pandemic isn't over. I'm immunocompromised. And the more everyone else insists on acting like it's over & throwing caution and masks to the wind, the less over it can be for me, or for others like me - at least not yet (yes, I'm grumpy about this. I think that's reasonable.). So it's not that I'm able to take a step back from the past year, not really - it's more that the disconnect between how I feel about it and how so many others seem to feel about it is thrown into stark relief, and that has me thinking about it differently. And yes, for all that the continued danger is real, the situation here in the US is way, way less dire. I may still have to be more cooped up than other folks at this point, but at least the three or so people I see with any regularity are way less likely to bring the virus with them when they come calling. That's huge. At least now I don't have to be afraid of the people I love. I celebrate the hell out of that fact, and try to hold the anxiety I feel about the rest of the world at arm's length.

This poetry comic (a tanka) is a memory from the worst waves of infection - lying in bed at night, watching ambulance lights move across the walls of my room with increasing frequency. It's an iconic memory, for me - one of the things that I think will always come to mind when I think of the past year.
