Lockdown Nothing To Do But Catch Up and Write About It Slam
With the world in lockdown
What is left to do ?
But log onto soup
And write about it
It's a sorry state of affairs
In solitary confinement
Such as doing simple math to
while the time away
Like
Counting how many sheets are on
a single toilet roll
Or
How long it takes for a kettle to boil
Or
Just how many repeats there are
these day's on television
It's at times like this i suppose we should be grateful for the internet
Even if it mostly doom and gloom
and tales of woe in our future ahead
With just a smattering of Fake News
for good measure
And 1 or 2 funny videos of cat's and dog's
For the loneliest of them all
With no family or friends
To count upon
