Challenging Times

God not again!
Amidst this pandemic I will go insane
All of us have seen the news
Restless world everyone is confused.
It has taken new form
Media will convince us this is the new norm
And this "Kent Covid Variant" will swipe away our sanity that I 
   can conform.

Deadly virus and political imbalance is a dreadful combination
Uncanny is the situation 
Backing away is not the option
Ending this pandemic is our task
You just have to wear a mask .
