Oh My Covid, Quarantine - Poem

 Oh My Covid, Quarantine


In a panic, slipped my mask on,
Just to go outside to shine
in the sunny springtime weather
But I broke my quarantine

And the 'CoVid' cops came running
With their rules so Byzantine
And they caught me within six feet
of a maskless Philistine

Oh my Covid, oh my Covid
Oh my Covid Quarantine
We'll be masked it seems forever
Oh my Covid Quarantine

Now I'm sitting in a jail house
Breathing viruses all the time
I'll be doing life a "mask-ed"
With a Covid Quarantine

Oh my Covid, Oh my Covid
Oh my Covid Quarantine
We'll be masked it seems forever
Oh my Covid Quarantine
