Jolly Hot

July hot like an oven
And I am not loving

Another model for quarantine has set in
It's about control
The body or parts of us

As we move outside but
We are still under another type of control
The face

Your neighbor or friends
Don’t trust
You trusts the ones
That you don’t know

The fall is coming
And I am afraid cause
The ones you trust
Are speaking about a second wave

When was there ever a first wave
To quarantine or not to quarantine
That is the question
