Two eyes I see, two eyes are me

no more, no less, can they undress,

so little time in moments near...

"Stay apart" is all we hear.


Surprise has come before our eyes

when we try so not to die


The world is hitting, we are sitting,

what to do...on fingers chew,

disintegration hits our nation

epidemic has no... embrocation.


"Joe Bloggs" gives a shrug and sigh

and from his coffin wonders 'Why?'.

Hi Les,


Very topical write, echoing, I suspect, the thoughts of many.

Illness is indiscriminate, as experienced by those who have sadly succumbed to it. However, there are ways to help minimise its spread, simple procedures to follow, even if they don't all work, they may help, so it's worth the small effort, for others if not one's self. And yet.........there are those who don't give a fig ~ the human animal can be so (I'm struggling for a printable word here, so you'll have to fill in the gap as you see fit).


A good write, Les,

Dx

Could do with a glass of rosé!

Hy, thanks David, as husband and wife or just two consciensious individuals...

we hope to at least curtail the spread of the pandemic by willingly wearing the mask.


What hope the future if noone or at least...so many dont even care or think about it, Les

Les it's strange times we find ourselves in at the moment and no matter what there are always those that have the "I'm alright Jack" attitude. The guide lines are simple but too tying to follow for some. Yes at the end of the day they might just wonder why...Tony (potleek)

Sadly, Tony, we have bred a new generation far removed from those days of rationing and much sacrifice for those in need...we still have our heroes of the groups but sadly, 

we also have those who don't give a damn. Wonder what they'd say if it did come round to them, Zy

Mixed opinions world wide on this pandemic flu like virus. The masking controversy has divided medics, their patrons and even families. I will only say this as I don't want to offend. You have recorded your concerns in a very precise and emotional tome.
