Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

What COVID-19 taught me

Generosity is trapped in a photo
shared on instagram and liked by a thousand
tearing privacy into tiny shards

Emotions are sold by traders
disguised as "reporters"
and kindness has become a drug,
supreme to Tylenol
while,

humanity is glorified as
a noun only to be used
on selected human "kinds"
and
that a racist can never be sobered

We are all in that market place called "humanity". It is a sad reality
that we are more often let down by those closest to us in many ways
rather than by those who lean in to help and advise.
