The crazy old hermit
Is how I sometimes feel
Anxiety and Amazon Prime
can keep me locked away
for days with no end in sight
Sometimes
When I go out
There's drive-thru
It helps keep people at a distance
Sometimes
Still
I love sitting in restaurants
or
Busy supermarkets
People are so wrapped up in self
It's easy to feel like an illusion
or apparition
In even the most crowded room
