Settling the Issue

Being part of the solution
is to follow the procedure.
Respecting the right restriction
is to like the safety measure.

Being part of the remedy
means winning the biggest battle.
Never changing the frequency,
remaining in the same channel.

Being not part of the problem
is breaking not the checkpoint rule.
The threat fills the road with mayhem;
making the virus very cruel.

Being not part of the trouble
is letting the puzzle be solved.
Making not the death toll double
by letting oneself get involved.

Quarantine teaches to stay home
and to sanitize the doorknob.
Never to wander, not to roam;
letting lockdown finish the job.
