The shift is changing- travel nurses- almost all black and moving.
The way we cope with Covid-19 is what we have in the bank.
There's safety in privilege, risk in need. Pray, maybe. Try. Just do.
This risk is just another one on the list, maybe even opportunity.
It's another threat, confront or deny, but most of all, keep moving by.
Some strike while the others work. It's not about principle. It's bills.
It's difficult to understand no choice when you're born with options.
The company pays me to sit here reading, typing this, as they walk by
Making small talk, carrying their phones and the night's meal, walking heavy,
Looking straight ahead, masked, never noticing me or the resource I represent.
