Once-A-Weekers
It seems like this pandemic
Has affected what we wear
(No bras, just sweats and tees)
And if we cut or dye our hair.
But something I just read about
Surprised me, for this change
May be noticed in some other ways
That I, for one, find strange.
For people have stopped bathing
Every day, but they insist
That fears of stinking up the air
Should quickly be dismissed.
A bath or shower taken,
On the average, once a week,
With a little cleaning in-between,
Won’t make a person reek.
This is something I won’t follow
For I shower every day
And when meeting once-a-weekers,
I will simply walk away!
