Corona Verses (written just, now)

Corona Verses

to be grounded, globally

and told to think hard

and how we'll get out?

Tell me, what’s your exit plan?

May 1, 2020 to May 31, 2020, in the Arts & Faith section of the St. Michael’s Episcopal Church Website (www.stmichaelsarlington.org/)

Showcasing images of 20 original ekphrastic artworks and 20 original ekphrastic poems.
