Smashing a Coronata

To help with frustrations that build
Some creative types made and then filled
A piñata to hang
Then to smash with a bang
But these folks were amazingly skilled.

Their piñatas, from which candy spilled,
Had a shape which we all would want stilled.
With a Covid design,
Looking far from benign,
Coronatas are how they are billed.

Wouldn’t any of us be just thrilled
If our wishes could be so fulfilled?
With a few mighty whacks
We could stem the attacks
And all cheer as the virus got killed!

Haha! Love the range of your humor, Ilene. Personally I'd rather see Trump hanging, never mind as a piñata! / M

How cathartic that would be! I see the quarantine has not sucked all the cleverness out of the human race!

I suspect about 70,000 former people would love to give a Trump piñata a thump! So did you get home delivery? Aloha! Rico
