Without a mask

Sitting in a waiting room without a mask
People all look but never ask.

They take a seat away from you just to stop the
Spread

Thinking I'm contagious and they might end up
Dead.

I ask you please don't try to judge me on what you
Think you know

By me not warming a mask your hostility will grow

Don't be afraid of me I don't mind just ask
And will glad explain to you why I don't ware a
Mask.
