The Covid 19 Bop

 

How long will it take

before I can drink

a cold one at a bar

or dine out

with family

and friends?

 

How long will it take?

 

I have worn my mask,

stayed six feet apart

from loved ones,

cleaned groceries

with Clorox wipes,

and washed my hands

until they have bled…

for months now.

 

How long will it take

 

for science to lead

for data to dictate

for politics to follow

for distances to shrink

for bandannas to disperse

for Change to take place?

 

How long will it take?
