Onism
(Danish) The awareness of how little of the world you’ll experience;
The frustration of being stuck in just one body that inhabits only one place at a time
YOLO is the keyword is it
But is once enough
is this one time enough
the years subtracted in sleep
in illness, in fear, in heartbreak
and now pandemic
is it not subtracting
from my once a lifetime
chance at life!
