Didactic Poem for Virus Days
Yup, one day at a time
they tell us but wait
what about all tomorrow’s problems
that i can worry about right now?
So what if maybe I’ll be OK
I don’t want to waste any anxiety.
I treasure all the terrible things
that can go wrong, even all at once.
This is better than disaster movies
and I’m the director and star.
Wanna struggle along with me?
It’s never too early to fret.
I like to get things done in advance
so let me be a victim right now
while I have the energy and the leisure
Or how about I first do the dishes?
