Okay, so I went to the store
Wearing a hospital grade
Mask and
Rubber gloves
I arrived early to avoid crowds
But so did everyone else
One old lady stood right next to me
I wanted to scream at her
Go away and don’t touch me
But I restrained myself
Just moved
I bought dried beans and rice
Five big bags full of food
And left with a sigh of relief
Took off my mask and gloves in the car
Rubbed my hands with sanitizer
And drove home
Where I will stay until I gather up enough courage
To shop again.
