Placate Me

I have a neighbor I have known She seemed friendly with her children fully grown But she watches only FOX and has groups for tea They laugh loudly without masks —very carefree Been told by my doctor to be careful outside Even with radiation and chemo the virus can survive I wonder as I see her and her husband take out their RV They are going out every weekend with no guarentees I hope they stay healthy and remain virus free They’ve listened to all the lies — so here is my plea As I wear my mask daily outside and I suspect we disagree Placate me for I do not want to hear of a death in the family As science and medicine have kept me for now cancer free Consider the doctors and nurses struggling so placate me
