Vaccinate the Yawn

News is abhorring
And so boring
Starting from the break of dawn
I think we need
To be indeed
Vaccinated for the yawn

They always try
The same tired lie
Their old shtick goes on and on
I’ll catch my death
With lack of breath
If they don’t vaccinate the yawn

They put on acts
With rusty facts
Their dog dug up from the lawn
And then they’ll drone
Over that bone
Hurry and vaccinate the yawn

Obey we should
For public good     
And if not they’ll use their brawn
That same lousy 
Makes me drowsy
Excuse me while I yawn

Here’s protection
From infection
Sorry but we’ve seen that con
So please instead
Cure sleepyhead
And vaccinate the yawn

We’ve had enough
Of their old stuff
We’re pooped out being their pawn	
Since they’re creepy
We’ll stay sleepy
Until they vaccinate the yawn

Bravo, David! Cleverly, composed, “If they don’t vaccinate the yawn!” Careful, some poets here want you and I put to death. I have seen it in print! We are a danger to society. I don’t think I would ever call for the death of another poet. I am an American, far from a Socialist!They can have all the boosters they want and wear a hundred masks, masks. Pangie Read,pls, Elena Eagle..her poem was written during the previous Covid madness…”Prick or a Poke” thanks. Pangie “Live Free or Die”
