Mask Quandary

At first, they ruled masks were not needed- And later, must wear them- they pleaded! And so- what should we think When rules change- in a blink? No wonder requests go unheeded! The law rules, in stores, we must wear one- Or with our face bare, sent away- done! Yet, protesters, not asked To converge, fully masked- Not chastised in gathering with none! With lungs somewhat frail, I support it- But cannot breathe well doing tasks with. Oxygen falls below- CO2 trapped in flow- For feeling quite ill- mask is culprit! Divided is news on this virus- Pandemic or not- does divide us. Very hard to sort out When some facts are in doubt- Is wearing masks good- or capricious?
