Ride bicycles en road,
Spoked wheels and pedaled spats,
Round about, in ornamental spode.
Animals in monocles,
Spectate in obeisance,
Cuffed by inked chronicle:

And a follower of rules.
I’m afraid of crowded places
And of virus molecules.

eyes lifted from the TV’s hallowed glow.
Breath is released in a low sigh;
