hands in warm water, rinsing away the day.

Respiratory viruses like coronavirus disease (COVID-19) spread when mucus or droplets containing the virus get into your body through your eyes, nose or throat. Most often, this happens through your hands. Hands are also one of the most common ways that the virus spreads from one person to the next.
During a global pandemic, one of the cheapest, easiest, and most important ways to prevent the spread of a virus is to wash your hands frequently with soap and water.

Sink

Spoken in the Quiet

You stand at the sink,

hands in warm water, rinsing away the day.

Light rests easy on your skin,

steam swirls gently,

a soft hum slipping from your lips.
