SHELTER-IN-PLACE FEVER DREAM
After this I want a president
Who speaks in poetry
The kids will ask me what’s a poem
And I’ll turn on the TV
Whose light will be well balanced
For growing all our plants
Including hemp for fiber
That I’ll use to make us pants
Which I’ll get used to putting on
Because we’ll meet in person
Hand in hand skipping away
(Or things could always worsen)

I was ready for bed and remembered I needed to write a poem. Out came this. Sorry not sorry.

Nothing to be sorry about here! It's a most excellent dream, one that I truly hope comes true...

Thanks! Fingers crossed, though I'd probably prefer to grow the hemp in my yard, all things considered :-P
