Real Revolution's In the Air

For those whom the Pandemic spared
    a real revolution's in the air

  From remote work demands
    come offices on the beach in the sand

  From Teacher's Unions' selfish lies
    watch a new improved school system arise

  From a shortage of service employees
    come whopping increases in their salaries

  Politicians' autocratic lockdown response
    heralds a massive civil disobedience renaissance

  And the government's over-generous checks
    prompt folks their life's priorities to inspect  

  So, what at first seemed an absolute disaster
    advances the future ever faster

Insightful and optimistic perspective, Gershon ... certainly a possibility in the long run. Sometimes ignorant people chose to take advantage of the feebees forever. I like the way you see it working towards a better world ... it's not The Flood, but can generate a new beginning. Intriguing and thought-provoking poetry, my friend. Thanks for sharing your thoughts through your thoughtful poetry. Bill
