This post Covid, emotionless place
A slave to
This hybrid home, slash, occupational space
Recklessness Replaced with this smooth soulless State
This new, blue, baby proofed world, sanitized
Weed Losing its luster when it became legalized
Lacking appetite, Internet, Netflix, TV, senselessly satisfied
Although we ARE full of this listlessness, I Miss my youthful wistfulness
I have missed my sharp corners, sharing germs and rough edges
Open mouth kisses, uncertain terms and random sex now turned to texts
Nervous nurses losing patients and purpose
Filling cursive PTSD prescriptions and hearses
You can’t comprehend how much caring a curse is
Pretentious corporate depression awareness
Sans solutions, just sloppy attempts to suppress the madness
Moody reviews, customer rudeness and just plain sadness
Toilet tissue supply and workforce shortages
Reality hits, record retail profits, is that really what this plague is
Covid cooked the books, all that matters is the bottom line of the pages
All you do is bitch and bicker
While the rich get rich and the sick get sicker
All the while, the line drawn between us gets thicker and thicker
While the wealthy get off better,
We, the walking dead just get deader
