Stay-In Pants
I went outside with stay-in pants
But no one even gave a glance
For masks on people just enhance
Invisibility.
Before this, when I wasn’t seen,
I thought such ignorance must mean
That younger folk just aren’t keen
On older ones like me.
I much prefer to blame the mask
Than taking those with youth to task,
But am I bothered? you might ask.
I’m fine; my pants agree.
