To Wear a Mask That Is the Question
To wear or not wear a mask that is the question found poems
To wear or not wear a mask
Is the question
That bedevils the world
From Brazil to the White House
Ohio and Texas
The call has gone out
Wearing a mask
Means you are a liberal weak sissy man
Or woman Listening to the government’s propaganda
Real American patriots
don’t need to wear a damn mask
Cough cough cough
Nothing but a cold
It is nothing serious at all
. Well, not in Ft. Bend County.
We will not trample on the individual rights
of Texans to provide
a false sense of security.
Cough cough cough
Nothing but a cold
It is nothing serious at all
I have 826 staff at the Ft. Bend Sheriff’s Office.
We interact with the public daily.
In 3 months, I’ve had just 2 officers test positive.
I have over 800 inmates
and staff in the jail
and not a single positive test.
NOT ONE.
Cough cough cough
Nothing but a cold
It is nothing serious at all
No one’s been hospitalized.
Except in Houston and other
Godless cities
Cough cough cough
Nothing but a cold
It is nothing serious at all
Here in FT Bend
The blood of Jesus
Will protect
The good christians
Cough cough cough
Nothing but a cold
It is nothing serious at all
Only non-Christian heathens
Are catching the ***********
Cough cough cough
Nothing but a cold
It is nothing serious at all
I encourage people to wear a mask
if they have one,
I encourage people
to wash their hands frequently,
Cough cough cough
Nothing but a cold
It is nothing serious at all
I encourage people to do
the right thing to help
protect our most vulnerable,
But wearing a mask
That is a step too far
