Isn’t It Strange?

Many of the days have been spent with movies like
Beau Travail
The Big City
The 40-Year Old Version

On the Rocks
Pather Pancali

Many days have been spent with TV like
I May Destroy You
Ramy
Dickinson
Twenties
Ted Lasso

Lovecraft Country
Lots of British mysteries

Many days have been spent with books like
Home Body
Clap When You Land
Girl, Woman, Other

Luster
Heart Berries

Shuggie Bain
Purge

Many days have been spent with music like
Zsela
Seinabo Sey
FKA Twigs
M83
Celeste

And that is just what was for me, not what was shared with others.

The strange year that is officially gone is unofficially still present
in mind, body, DNA, soul
As strange as it is/was to think of how it got to be this way
Isn’t it stranger still to think of it not being this way
someday?

It always takes time to shake off the previous year
since Life does not change overnight

It always takes time to shake off the previous year
since it takes time to renew your hopes and dreams

and prayers
