I got my Covid shot today
And so far, I feel A-OK,
Yet what I really want to say
Is f*** you, Jr. R.F.K.
Each year, I get the booster shot
And, whether you agree or not,
We all deserve the chance for what
Most scientists endorse a lot.
Vaccines won’t work if people heed
What R.F.K. says we don’t need.
At least some states will now proceed
With keeping people up to speed.
My band-aid proves I got the stick,
Which didn’t hurt and ended quick.
I’d rather have a little prick
Than one who’s quite the lunatic.
The booster is in town
trying to keep Omicron down
The governemnet is scared
the coronavirus has reflared
People will get sick
With this guy ever so quick
Are there any doctors and nurses around?
we need all hands on the ground
The UK has lost the plot
And Australia is being lead by clots
Lots of people will die
And many families will cry
But it was all worth it
All that true determination and grit
We saved the economy
surely you don't believe in astrology
I had my second booster shot
And energetic, I am not.
I’ve gotten past the needle’s ouch
But can’t get off my cozy couch.
With no set plans, I am content
To hang around, the hours spent
With rest and music that sustains,
The vaccine coursing through my veins.
at this stage of the game- the only thing you're boosting is big pharma banks
Vaccine is there
Booster dose is
there for Omicron
One day world would be
Free of Covid pandemic
But there is no vaccine
for infected Mindset
Local to Global
Fight is between
Men versus men
Too much of politics
is happening all-around
No morals, no ethics
Everyone is just a vote
Remembered once in 5 years
Power of Right
Need to replace
Power of Might
Value based society
Need to replace
Vulture mindset of society
Dog eat Dog
Need to replace
Humans hug Human
Let R & D happen
Invent Booster dose ....
...of honesty against Corruption
...of peace against disruption
...of harmony against polarisation
...of humanity against terrorism
Save Human and humanity
Else they will be new pandemic
Covid can be won
But humanity pandemic will be fatal
Cause none would be there
to invent a vaccine, booster dose

The booster shot I just acquired
Is making me overly tired
And I can’t dispute
I’ve a headache to boot,
Not the outcome that I had desired.
My reactions to shots 1 and 2
Were like having a mild kind of flu.
Still, this dosage was not
Like the first ones I’d got
So I thought I would simply sail through.
Though I’m glad my immunity’s raised
And the powers-that-be should be praised,
Hope I feel better fast
And this shot is my last
For one more and I’ll be a bit crazed.
An Old Roster Needed a Booster
had been boaster
about booster of a booster
for an old roster
from head to his tail
while whiling away a whale
behind left big trail
why did his behind
have left big trail or maybe
big trail left behind
went out on a lamb
when I had heard that Instagram
sure was such a sham
much food on platter
caused me to become fatter
record did shatter
there once was a dunce
liked making punts and pulling stunts
would do only once
wily winner
simple sinner
bold beggar
timid twister
mini monster
fatherless father
hand-less helper
hot pulsating radical
radioactive tropical pepper
who else could've
done it better
under these conditions
on the surface facing bad weather
I soar above it all
because my pen is a falcon feather
STILL, A HEART AND MIND BOOSTER
It stopped but unending
Going on strange, steady, continuing, outpouring
This endearing, keeps on beating, pulsating, thinking
And, upcoming, sojourning
Caring endlessly, more than loving
…And to you NO DOUBTING!
