by William Aarnes
Since the legislatures,
in cahoots with the NRA,
governors, presidents, and courts
have interfered with our right
to peacefully assemble,
I now venture out
no further than the garden
and the mailbox.
I have everything delivered,
stream my entertainment,
practice my faith online,
And, since I can request
ballots from home,
I vote absentee.
William Aarnes lives in South Carolina.
