One of the defining characteristics attributed to the Zoomer Generation is their lack of faith in, and lower participation in, non-governmental civic institutions.
In the current crisis, are they forming their own, thru tech like Zoom itself?
Are they now, truly, Zoomers?

The most interesting thing outside your window right now that you see every day, keep thinking about parallels between COVID-19 and the gypsy moth and ash beetle that devastated forests of southeastern Connecticut:
Giants of old
hang tired,
towering over
a history past
by. Branches bend
and crumble
under weight of
knowing no spring
will come
now dwellings of decay
a future robbed
hordes of gypsies
descended a
pandemic in the
canopy
killing so many
now empty
Mausoleums
of mourning
