Abstract

This poem is about having met someone in early 2020 before the pandemic was declared, and consequently, getting to know them under the strangest of circumstances — after the world had closed its borders and we had nothing but time and undivided attention to give those in our “bubble."

Ultimately, this poem is a celebration of sexuality and queer love.
