Season of Guilt

I sit by my window peering down and smiling upon the empty streets.

Springtime blooms are dancing, uncorrupted by the usual artificial noise, pollution, and commuters. 

How can I lounge about and admire the scenery from my high castle knowing others gasp and gargle in isolation?

Still, the neighborhood is beautiful this time of year.

Tyler Christian Thompson is a medical student at UAMS.
