We sit on screens, sharing lives in a pandemic. My eye twitches and burns. I want to step away, yet I’m called to the connections, the opportunities, the connections. The air outside is full of smoke, the air inside is full of memories…of tables filled with food and friends…of laughter and sharing space and time. I miss being together, getting hugs and giving them. Creating works of art with songs and stories. Making magic memories and moments with one another. On stage not screen! The screen calls… a substitute for now and hopefully not for long.
