20: I Haven't Been Hugged In A Week

I have to confess that my life hasn’t changed much because of this virus.
Except for the fact that I haven’t been hugged in a week.
I am just as existential and introspective as I was before.
Except I haven’t been hugged in a week.
I question my life choices this week as much as I did last week.
Except this week, no one has hugged me.

I haven’t lost a lot.
Except for a few hugs and a bit of freedom.
I did lose a job.
But it was one of those “in the meantime” jobs, ya know?
And now we’re all just stuck in the “meantime”.

[MEANTIME]

I’m still trying to figure out what to do IN this “meantime”...
