Restless

The news spreads We're going to open borders Pandemic becomes epidemic Some people applauded and excited Feel free to go Dine-in Travel Gathering Some people anxious and restless Start to appeal,whine Complain,criticise,satire At a loss It pays to be put in a double squeeze But epidemic index up Some people are unprepared Starkly silent Start to leave it to chance Resigned to fate But still have to make ends meet Economic recession kills Famine kills Prolonged lockdown kills And so A lift of various ban A new implementation Restless though We have to leave it to infinity The unknown Or to God Whom maybe All along we have gone Astrayed and betrayed Finally blessings with SOP And we have to do our parts Everyone please

You have covered a great deal of the angst in your poem. Some died from the pandemic, some suicide, some stay closed in, some venture out. Regardless we have all experienced this.
