I am asymptomatic. At least I
Assume I am. I’ve been around someone
Who’s had covid 19. And that is why
I’m trying not to pass the virus on.
I don’t know if I have it to pass on
Perhaps I don’t, and I’m overreacting
Perhaps I had the thing, and now it’s gone
I go out, and don’t know whom I’m impacting.
Trying to get this right is so exacting:
Should I get back to work, or just stay here?
Adhering to the rules would be distracting
Enough, with this ever present fear
That somehow, I am making all this worse:
Schroedinger’s vector. My uncertain curse
