Social Distancing Poems

Social Distancing

I've spent my life social distancing by pushing people away 
More times than not the further I push you the more I wanted you to stay 
I've been back stabbed so much that I don't know how to trust 
It's just me, Myself and, that line has already been used too much 

My past has

Ovid-20 - Social Flocking

The morning was breaking and sheep were awaking,  
which was much as the sheep all expected to do 
But this morning's arising was far more surprising –  
a mask fairy had brought them all something new
 
And the fairy remained and to them explained,  
"The times now ahead will be tricky and

Isolation In April 2020

I feel almost cut off from the rest of the world,

Trapped,

In my city, in my home, in my mind.

I can feel the time slipping away along  with my sanity as I cling to a semblance of normality. 

Only 3 days in with 33 to go, and even that seems quite unlikely.

I try to talk

Social Distancing

Men always remember Molly
The girl with the lethal brolly
Get near her skirt
Or try to flirt
And its back to Hello Dolly!

Good Old Days

Skies are filled with lonely empty silhouettes 
Climbing up a lonely stair when I am late 
It is not so easy to distance yourself away
Cuz good old memories fill empty passage ways

It's not as easy as you think to get going on alone 
Cuz my mind won't give me rest until the memories fill me

The Age of Social Distancing

The age of social distancing, rife with existential angst and discontent.
People with cabin fever break quarantine, take to the streets to vent.

Requiem For a Dream

REQUIEM FOR A DREAM

 

A time will come when pace will stop and numb we will become

When home will be your cage and survival the only privilege

When touch will kill and people turn into venom

That my friend is a satan dream I once used to think

 

But now as they say that truth is stranger

Ounce of Prevention

Does wearing a mask make you ill?
Are you a social distancing hater?
Then imagine how you'd feel
Being put on a ventilator

At Least It Was Something

Our daughter, the professional epidemiologist
(Someone who studies things like diseases and pandemics)
came by today and social distanced with us.

No hugs
No touches
No pats

She refused to come into our house
Explaining she had been too many places
We would lose all ground we had gained

Staying home
Seeing no people
Going nowhere since March 12th, and it is June 7th!

So we sat

Social Distancing

Keep 2 meters away,
That means don’t come near me
As much as I love people,
Don’t come near me

What does this social distancing mean?
It means,
I can write till my fingers bleed,
Imagine till I have a migraine
It means poetry day,
Poetry night.
Poetry everyday

Leave me be,
I’m stuck in my mind,
Writing what comes to mind.
Putting those I can say out loud,

Social Distancing

A disease has spread,
Stay at home, away from friends,
Distance averts spread

Making Whoopie While Social Distancing

a most magical and wonderous feat
but you must have a long tool
or become the town fool
as you plead with and stretch out your weenie

Social Distancing

Jack and Jill went up the hill,
Social distancing was forgotten,
Jill came down with Covid 19,
We wish they had been smarter!
