The Covid-19 pandemic feels like an entire era with distinct periods to me now. Remember when we were preoccupied with hand sanitizer and Clorox Wipes? I’m happy to have my poem “Eighty Percent,” about hand sanitizer and addiction, included in Global Poemic. It’s accompanied by amazing art by Arabella Luna Friedland. Many thanks to the editors and to Arabella.
