Pandemic Day 28, Dad Eats Leftovers

to want to taste something
she cooked, and she,

still there in the freezer, her
script: Chicken Soup

Poetry Emily Hyland

Pandemic Day 15 and 16, Dead Yeast

I kill the yeast. Everything is
hot water these days

Poetry Emily Hyland

Pandemic Day 3, At the Restaurant

spiders that have crept back
into the wine room corners. I like to

leave them, to
leave something alive

Poetry Emily Hyland
