As air
temperatures began to boil
And job
losses from shut downs continue to take their toil
Tempers of
those jobless and out of work with no money to put food on the table
Are becoming
frustrated with the stay at home social distances that seems like a fable
The solemn proclamations
of the elite that we’re all in this together
While the
MSM is still working and millions of jobless are chained to a stay at home
tether
Knowing that
so many of the Blues and MSB with TDs Stage 4 infected
Are trying
so hard to hide their glee of an economy shattered so Trump may not be
reelected
With each week
millions more looking for unemployment checks not yet to be received
Out of work,
out of money, realization their dreams for themselves and kids may not be
achieved
Deaths in
the flu season which will end in May
Are about
equal in the same numbers each would slay
But despite
hundreds of thousands with flu into hospital beds
We didn’t
lock-down close schools and force employers to their workers shed
With baby steps
and looks over our shoulders with fear
We are
opening up and praying another surge of deaths will not appear
At least now
Cuomo must have learned nursing homes must be protected
Their
elderly residents will die like flies alone if they become infected
In this
fight it would be far better
If partisan
TDS charges they would try to fetter
