Corona Parties

RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR:  CORONAVIRUS SERIES



Corona Parties

They invite the infected to attend
Throw money in a pot
Who will get the virus first?
Who will win the lot?

Kids will be kids sins will be sins
But killing grandpa is no way to win

Are they blind to what’s happening?
Do they just not care?
Are they filled with contempt?
Do they do it on a dare?

Teenage angst is a dangerous thing
You just want to get on with it
Let your free spirit sing
It’s a passage in the game of life
It’s always been this way
But what was fine back then
Is a catastrophe today

Is it teenage angst? 
Did you do it on a dare?
Are you filled with rage?
Do you just don’t care?

I remember being young
Nothing mattered but the now
Times have changed and it’s not fair
Everyone is running scared
So take a moment to think about
For tomorrow there will be doubt
