RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: CORONAVIRUS SERIES
Bubble World
I have seen the future
A strange and foreign view
A vision of fear and separation
A world not brave but new
It began when a virus
Spiraled out of control
Then protest brought violence
That compromised our souls
So the wealthy took refuge
In bubbles of their own device
Self-sufficient isolation
Purged of disease and blight
They created a bubble
To keep the riffraff away
When the virus was vanquished
They kept it that way
Why take any chances
If you feel a bit wary
And you’ve got enough money
It’s not necessary
Live your life in a bubble
No worries or fears
Protected and guarded
From anger and jeers
