I can’t think with my mask on
My senses have gone
Absolutely numb
I can’t tell when I am shopping
if I am buying a cucumber
or if it is just my thumb
I am tired of pretending to smile
When I am really not
And you would think the
Virus would get the message
And go away

I understand that they don’t go swimming
They are afraid they will drown and float away
So I think the safest place for me
Is at the beach today.
