Summer taunts us verily with
now thinking back to it last year-
and praying then, we'd now be free.
But no- we still must live in fear.
Lost months' nonsense only paved
the hilly trail of ups and downs.
Told vax will work- yet, breakthroughs creep;
uncertainties leave us with frowns.
Covers deemed- erasing faces, good;
the vaxxed, unvaxxed, it matters not.
Our choice negated- freedom lost;
still call for all to get the shot.
Fresh graphs- higher indexes jeer-
must follow science they decree.
No hocus-pocus bar designs
should now become their control key.
