another day in lockdown as panic grips the nation
another day of quarantine and utter isolation

thank god i have a window, thank god i have a view
across the street another window
and in that window is you

day 21, i noticed you, you played the clarinet
day 24, you sorta waved and that was how we met
day 29, at 2 am, we both were up too late
i poured some wine, you raised a glass like we were on a date
a really nice first date

you there, across the way, just above the shuttered sushi bar
i don’t know your name
and i don’t know who you are
but 60 feet has never felt so close
so close and yet so far

day 32, i washed my hands, you made a cornish hen
day 36, you sewed a mask, i washed my hands again
day 43, we both ate lunch on windowsills that day
we felt the breeze and dreamed of france, a chic outdoor cafe
a tres bien cafe

you there, across the way, laughing as i play my air guitar
i don’t know your name, and i don’t know who you are
but 60 feet has never felt so close
so close and yet
so far i’m asymptomatic, except for a bad case of fomo
and a slightly distressing, unhealthy obsession with
governor andrew cuomo

da-day 48, yeah that’s today, i see your beaming face
you’re holding up a handmade sign that says “my name is grace”

grace, of course your name is grace

you there, across the way, just above the shuttered sushi bar
now i know your name
and i want to know who you are
but 60 feet has never felt so close
so close, and yet
so close and yet
h-llo grace, my name is… anthony
