Death comes everyday
Every hour
Sometimes I can forget
But COVID-19
Escorts so many
Famous faces
To the land of the dead
It fills our minds
Making every-day death
More shocking
Today
Fellow Alaskans
Fishers, who knew how
To play hard, too
Left us
So young to cross the river
So young before the throne
Tested in the crucible so young
We would cast our tears before
Your feet
Like rose petals
If we could
