To watch
those peaky mountains
in fearsome upward climb
day after trending day…
such impersonal numbers
until you consider
the quiet funerals
and prolific wreaths –
concentric blue rings
of arcing grief.
Will the ripples
one day collide
and splinter this facade
of unquiet peace?

I used worldometers early on, but as the first wave cooled the national level became too broad-brush and I started looking for local data. Worldometers now has no more than “interest” value, to see how other countries are doing.

I’m sorry, I thought you were talking about worldometers.info. Sorry if my comment was irrelevant.

It’s ok. Here in Australia we have very few cases. So we don’t get as much as you probably do in our local news.

So it was about Worldometer’s info but I was trying to imagine what that really represents. It’s a bit vague though.. the poem I mean.
