Corona, the Devil

Yesterday I wrote a poem in my head,
It was a beautiful thing and made me cry,
For I have been in isolation since a man said
You have rules of when you can come and walk by..

Not one little foot have I put out the door, and
Depression plagues me more and more.
Oh, I do know I am not the only one,
Though I am told I’m a likely one.

Medicine whispers in my ear, my car was wrecked,
I’m full of fear after chest pains gave me a scare  
How often I thought “when I have time,” but
Not one little foot have I put out the door.

Once I held my head high into the clouds,
And asked for directions as to how I could please?
And I did == 
, but now I wait for a sweet potato from the mike,
Maybe the virus will die before I!

Hello Sunlite … deadly and highly contagious, but then the crazies follow, but then I read the death tally. A fine verse to accompany the feelings of many Sunlite - Lindsay

I hope the virus precedes us all - it needs to die, for it is the devil and must go back to hell. Blessings my friend, Jennifer.
