Love in the time of Covid consists of poetry pre-covid, and during, after, and into the eternal present. The pandemic disrupted the abnormality of normality trading its abnormalities for totalitarian edicts to see if people would do anything to stay alive, take a trip, to pretend things would be normal again if they submitted. A time of mask covered faces convinced by fear and propaganda, cowering, showing no smiles, nothing human. The time of unironically-developed-oxy-moronic-doublethink-language designed to confuse the ability to think critically. A time of 'social distancing', 'alone together', 'lockdowns', 'stay safe, stay home', 'trust the science', and all the other slogans designed to emphasis the importance of total compliance to the state and of submission to the 'science' and its infallible representatives bought and paid for by corporate industrial complexes, in turn paid by our government, paid by us. This PSYOP on humanity and all that is human, is still going on; albeit a bit defeated, a bit humbled, but we persist in living life. The human experience did/does not stop due to lockdowns, mandates, for-profit-vaccines, or masks. And these 22 poems reveal this continuity.
