Life's Remote Control
It's Saturday eve
we're drinking in town
Only joking, I wish.
We're still in lockdown.
Any inkling of romance
on pause until further notice.
Making plans for the future
feels utterly hopeless.
We were all on fast forward
and the world blew a fuse.
Burying our heads in the sand,
disregarding the news.
Forced to stop
and re-evaluate life.
Beneficial for all
though the stress has been rife.
With no option to rewind
all we have is hindsight.
But we're sick of these rules
our patience is finite.
For now, we press play
and take joy in what we can.
I just really hope they lift
the bar and restaurant ban.
