In the pavements
I would lay my back against
the white walls and waited
for the pretty girls to pass by
And I would see it all
Long blueprinted sainted dresses
Short dissected skirts
Plasma asses
Onion buttocks
Fair aroma skins
Cracked scarred skins
Huge balmy heels
small preyed feet
Ugly faced baboons
And some pretty faced angels
I would see it all
Then I would see a man like me
Following from behind.

The truth is
its rare out here
3 or 9 cases of the damned pandemic
I am even doubting if the government
is telling us the truth

And it’s a shame
look at how we tremble at the sound
of a cough or a sneeze
Look at how we isolate our fellow
humans, even our own family and blood
it’s a shame to see

Humans killing human
and for what?
because he was bleeding from the nose?
and you freak out? screaming in the streets
claiming its Corona?
And you believe it?
why have we stooped so low?

Oh...

Eminently the cold brushes my skin
And I leap 10 feet from a dreary dungeon
to grab the phone hanging in the clouds
“hello jack…”
I call my neighbour to tell him of the unthinkable
“Thom, why you crying..?”
And this time, I keep sobbing my tears into my mouth
“…are you on drugs again?”
Jacks voice is like a gun fire in the Vietnam war
leaking of fresh blood and Indian hemp.
And the barking of a dog
No
dogs, a pack of them
footsteps…
someone is running…me?
but off Course its me
I hid my cloak under the bed
But...
