Having a Medical School Image

It is in the air 
Maybe the chair 
Giving everyone a health care scare 
And that is not fair 
Added to having the homework done 
And recess fun 
Wearing a mask 
Is the law abiding marketed task 
Saying this will solve the problem 
Scripted “We got them” 
Ending the virus infection 
As a prescription protection 
Face covering does have an angry sight
Uncomfortable and tight
Frightful with might  
Trying to breathe 
Taking away human expressions to see 
Trust needs to come on board 
To win the invisible contagious war 
By showing the door 
Defeating controlling factors looking for a power play score 
This is a choice 
Made behind the godly surgical hidden voice 
“I see your man date 
And raise you ‘after Election Day get things straight’” 
This is a concern 
Distractions in the environment where students learn 
Both book smarts 
And social starts 
Memorizing everything by heart 
In order to be ready in playing a part 
In this debatable plot 
Dumped on those wanting a shot 
Know the setting 
Before betting 
Taking the mask off 
And getting a life threatening cough 
From the smoke 
That the Marlboro cowboy stoked 
And the entertainers puffed while telling a joke 
Sipping on something added to their coca coke 
Wearing a mask is not a way to conform 
Instead it’s a peaceful way during a storm 
To call the house 
Squeaky as a mouse 
“I hope you have a better hand 
In this political party stand 
Or a new generation will win the pot voting ‘you are canned’”
