It doesn't take much
A stormy day
While I must stay
Within my comfort zone
Safe from the threat
Imposed not from the sky
But rather by an unknown viral
Spiral threatening survival
Strange times sheltering in place
Masks not for vigilantes
Those who would be "free"
Threaten you and me!
Recall those ten-foot poles
Last called upon medievial
Separate the stricken from the well
Contemplate the now
As leaders figure how
To weather this unpredictable storm;
Our norms upended.
