The New Normal

Social distancing, together apart, six feet between.
Is the new normal to be sociably, acceptably clean.
Where has humanity come to after all our evolution.
Only to be separated by a pandemic's fearful solution.
We stay at home internet bound, no touching please.
Hiding behind masks to protect us from another's sneeze.
No shaking of hands or slow dancing, it's stickily forbidden.
Isolation is our new normal for fear of being germ bitten.
What have we come to and where are we fearfully going.
To live and be afraid of one another's closeness showing.
Giving up that which makes our human community strong.
Letting this evil control us though it's ill corrupted song.
The new normal is not normal for a social humanity.
We shouldn't allow a lie to become our twisted insanity.
Let us stand up and take the precautions that we must.
And dwell within the hope and peace of a God we trust.
Roam alike the devil I on thy land
Quiet silent without perfect ambition grand,
Wherever peep find people proudly proceed
Solely cede sociably at that no heed.
Sober savory what served me macabre trouble
Little thought of revolution posting my fault double,
Tension not towards God who purifies our soul,
Yet enthralled by each His materialistic power whole.
Their glory to seduce innocent is unreliable claim,
Promoted theft, corruption and forgery as if master game.
Cluster of vampires moving freely enjoying regular thrust
New born dies wanting milk in his mother's breast.
Groaning love lying lurking under pressure worldly power
Cunning crazy wiseacre searching wholly practical hour;
Warns nature recurrent leave polemics be providential,
Provide honest support allow living them all dimensional.
