Corona Journal Entry Another Covid Friday night. Embraced the darkness. Why is it so hard to paint the moon and not be cheap? A first attempt. In any case, it was impetus to stand quietly in the marsh as night swept in. By chance, I was in the right spot and looking up at the sky when the moon did this. And I was still watching when it disappeared behind the clouds in a blink. § Corona: With the wave of vaccinations a collective exhale of relief is building, but also an increase of breath-holding anxiety for those who don’t yet have a place in line. The death rate declined from recent highs in the US but still 2,000 people a day are dying. ** It is chance also which landed me on this planet in a demographic profile which is much less likely to be one of the last to die in the pandemic.
**About the same as leading cause of death, heart disease and ahead of 1600 daily from cancer. [reference].
