consider taking up our case

the left tibia
hospital ward
living in Russia
voluntary quarantine

television radio computer bed
shower spit-wash
booking number

***

we cry a lot
we have no windows
our natural light is blocked

we have no hot water
we have a basin of water
a washcloth

a room without guards
without handcuffs or chains:
consider taking up our case

***

we are not in a position to assess
public health risks from
reactionary ignorance
can you respond?

we walk around
homeless shelters
prisons
breathe in our mouth

what rights do we have?
state it correctly:
"Da."
Not as easily transmissible.

***

confine us
allow us
force us

we are
we is
prevalent

one out of every person
has us
