Going to the Theatre

I sit in a crowded theatre
next to people I don't know
behind me are people I do know
I turn around to see their reaction
when I think something is funny
this is the first time I have sat
front and center in a crowd in years
15 minutes into the play I realize
I am not worried about getting sick
Like the last few years were a blip
in the system and everything 
now is back to normal
