Locked Out (Looking In)

RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: CORONAVIRUS SERIES

 

Locked Out

 

In Paris London and Berlin

They fight a virus not a sin

They look at us with woeful doubt

They’re locked in and we’re locked out

 

From Manhattan to LA

We let the virus have its way

Now we let it run its course

As we bow our heads and pray

 

We are at least a world apart

We have known it from the start

They are governed by the mind

We are governed by the heart

 

In Paris London and Berlin

It’s a war they know they’ll win

From Manhattan to LA

We’re locked out and looking in
