“Remote”

For many of us, 2021 looked and felt like the B-Side of 2020. We were still home, attending work, school, and church virtually. Brodie Theis reflects on this reality in his short yet poignant poem.

Remote
By Brodie Theis

Remote school
and work.
Remote meetings
and friends.

All that is gained,
and lost.

Our coworkers
our family
our customers
our lives
are over there.
