Shattered Illusions of independence
Due to this global pandemic,

Shattered Illusions of independence
Due to Covid 19,

Shattered illusions of independence
Due to the rapid reopening
of society,

Shattered Illusions of independence
Due to the social anxiety
To return to normal,

Shattered Illusions of independence
Due to the pandemic fatigue
Of those in authority,

Shattered Illusions of independence
Due to having to depend on the high risk
populations,

And shattered Illusions of independence
Due to our having to depend on the most vulnerable
And their fear of letting go........
