Today's poem is by H Warren

Get Back To Work America
       

fellow community members
the recession is coming

get back to work

make it great again

absent from a press conference
the image of the dead

what Covid swallowed

the men with guns
safe at the capitol

like a grenade
discomfort
explodes into
oppression

it's all revenue

there's a formula for this

priority issues
will include
whiteness

national lenders
bent language

look at the language

the institution
of the PPE
and the coffin

industry is
a level playing field
for the hostage

remember
there are more important things
than living
swab down the throat
open the doors
get with the program
get back to work

buzz word
rhetoric
disaster

this is a pandemic
after all

have you considered
applying for
prayer and well wishes?
