THE QURANTINE LAMENT
I’m mucking about
My head in a clout
And nothing seems the same.
Got a new carrot top
Or yarmulke bop
In the merry go wary game.
A fear of outdoors
Of virus and s’mores
And round and round again!
Tis the quarantine bout
– sciatica not gout
And it all seems so vain.
The census is calling
But I am free falling
Somewhere over the Seine
Should I vacuum and Hoover
Or hover and vacuum
To smother this lockdown gloom?
Shall I dust and mites
In very small bites
I definitely have my doubts.
Tis the quarantine mop
All shivers and fop
And I just blew my top
Again.
