COVID-19 Dominoes

COVID-19 Dominoes

    

 By Jing Yu

 

 Invisible hand

 Touched the world

 One by one

 Feeling your vibration

 Shaking, struggling, and falling

 

 Those we all “used to be”

 And breath

 Are sealed by you

 

 In the half light half dark whirlpool

 Countless ups and downs of exhaustion 

 Look up together

 Only to expect

 Hearing the last one

 The Sound of falling

新冠骨牌

    

文/静语 

 

无形的手

轻触了下世界

一张接一张

感知你的震动

摇晃、挣扎、沦陷

 

所有的习以为常

连同呼吸

都被你封锁起来

 

在半明半暗的漩涡里

无数个沉浮的疲惫

一起仰起头来

只期盼

听到那最后一张

落地的声音
