Dear __________. A poem by Claire Blennerhassett

Dear ________,

I hope you and yours are keeping well in these strange times.
In these strange times, I hope you and yours are keeping well.

I hope you are,
Dear.

Keeping strange,
Keeping time.
Strange times.
Well, well, well.

And yours
Are yours

And yours are these

Dear time
Strange hope,
Hope and time.
Keeping in you.

Dear ________,
I hope you are
Well
In keeping hope.

I, I, I…
