You know what? Come to think of it

I’m so very sick of this shit

Which isn’t to say

I’m throwing in the towel

Just on some days

That I want to howl

Here we are Christmastime in 2020

No reason or rhyme virus aplenty

Nation’s pandemic response – anemic at best

Administration’s nonchalance, ischemic, in jest

But what to our wondering eyes did appear

Much to our surprise a vaccine in a year

Scientists use science, that’s using their head

Otherwise known as the scientific method

In record time many went straight to work

To conquer the COVID, a ruinous jerk

But people, Americans, yes our citizens here

On the insistence of our prez, continue to jeer

I won’t wear a mask they say with such aplomb

Childish tantrums, acting so dumb

It’s not your freedoms that rules are averting

It’s not caring for the others, that you are hurting

Together is the only way, we know and confess

To our Gods, to get out of this mess

So in this season of joyous life, lights a twinkle

Be considerate of others, yes, just a sprinkle

Don’t be inhuman, thinking what’s in it for me

Humans being human, that’s humanity

I care for you all, won’t you do the same

Let cross the goal line, in true Jesus’ name

We can win this contest, cheer victoriously

At each of our behest, indeed gloriously

Closing this poem with love and adoration

People, let’s show ‘em, no matter their station
