I've stayed home and out of harm's way during Covid 19 times
So today I masked up and got a taxi to the GP surgery
My driver was also masked and windows open wide
You have to queue to get in
There is a rope like at a theatre premier
One by one you are allowed in
The receptionist is all masked
The rest of the front desk crew are all behind plastic
Like the Deli selection in a store
Face to face no more
The bloods girl herself is all shielded and gowned
Almost like a welder but without the welding arc
Just needles at the ready
I returned on the bus
Empty bus with bored drivers, now survivers
It is not a pretty life for anybody
The high street looks lame and lifeless too
This is just a snapshot of my local lockdown area
There will have to be changes nobody anywhere can live like this
Joy has to be returned
I did suggest an outdoor version Of Birmingham is Ballet
But no takers so far
We must return the smiles not just air miles
SO I'll return to humour with new vigour
For laughter is the Trigger for everything
And there really is magic in touch, a Genesis
for everything not just a song
and thank you Cambodia for passing by
along with Switzerland and Turkey reading translations
of The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker my comedy/drama
p.s. you could all print off my fool in orange snap from above and put it in your
window, we are still smiling here, but then again there are much bigger fools
