Another World

by C. S. Boyd

 

Our needs onhold.

Will it be ok?

I thinkour  primary need is for life.

 

electivesurgeries must wait.

No kidneytransplants, now.

Too much risk.

No kneereplacements.

Too much risk.

Do I have cancer?

Can we remove thetumor?

You must wait. 

I think thatis mostly a thing of the past, now  thatthe hospitals are open for business again. If we open up too quickly they’llhave to close again to make room for the new virus victims.

 

 

Too much risk.

 

No toilet paper.

Who cares.

Use old socks. 

Who can  afford to use sox, old or new As far astelephone book paper and packaging it to  throw away, I say ‘yuck.’

 

Telephone bookswork well, some say.

Just don't flushthem.

Put it in a bag,and throw it away.

 

She lives inanother world.

Where All iswell.

Nothing to worryabout.

Are youtalking about someone real, or a made up personality.

 

abortions areassential.

She'll see thatit's approved.

Sometimesabortions are essential. 

 

She is stressed--

Needs a couple ofweeks off to recharge.

The crisis canwait.

she speeds to herivory tower.

Her commercialfreezer of ice cream awaits.

 

The arts andmusic must be funded

They areessential. 

.

They are moreimportant than small business and those lazy workers.

The onlypeople who say the people are lazy , are the ones who want them to go back towork at all costs.

 

All is well.Nothing to worry about.

Except that idiotin the white house.

Her goal todiscredit and remove him.

He can’t bediscredited. He has no credit.

 

People search theempty shelves for basic needs.

Small businessowners watch their livelihood crumble.

Laid off workerswonder how they will pay their bills.

We agree onthat point.

 

She has noworries. 

She has icecream.

"If theydon't have ice cream," says she,  "let them Eat frozen yogurt.

Who are youtalking about.?
