COVID Poetry Corner: “Just Another Two Weeks”

Just Another Two Weeks

Yes our lockdown in Toronto has been extended for another two weeks
the battered spouse and the cancer patient awaiting surgery weeps
our Toronto mayor says just be patient until the lockdown expires on March 8th
same old message on my mind is beginning to grate

The politico-medicos have us imprisoned behind fear and frightening stats mates
having lost control of our collective fates
