The Corona Virus
mandates self-isolation
and not leaving our home
It gives new phrasing
to the expression
"Holier than thou"
Morph those words into
"Lazier than thou"
And that is all
we need to survive
That is,
we do not leave
the comfort
(or discomfort)
of our home
(or hovel)
We should wear our pajamas
all day long,
and do as little as possible
from dawn to dusk
Let yawning become
our new primal scream
Whether or not
we have a cat,
we can learn
how to cat nap
We should read the news
from six years ago
and be able
to predict what happens
on Page Six
Be lazier than our neighbors
and stand a better chance
of not dying
before our time
Unless we relish the idea
of killing our neighbor
with a handshake
(or vice-versa)
