The air behind this mask is different.
Breathing wants to feel like
Inhaling through a stack of hay.
My body has to remind itself,
“You’re okay.”
You don’t have to activate your flight Tendency.
Because at least you can breathe,
At least you can see
At least you can hear
At least you can speak
At least you’re alive.
You’re alive. Let’s keep it that way. Wear your mask.

Wearing these CDC-recommended masks is a ridicule
My ears being pushed forward like a monkey
We’re all walking around looking like a monkey
And the pain at the back of the ear is an unending story
I did not survive the hunting and gathering for this.
You also did not survive the hunting and gathering to lose your life to a virus. Wear your mask!
