Precautions

Post by Dylan di Vilde » Mon Mar 16, 2020 2:40 am

You may be a sad poet loner
but you don’t want to die of Corrona
so look out for yellowy glands
and constantly scour your hands,
ensure you’ve a hanky close by
and your alcohol content is high.
And if you are writing then please
take a bath before touching the keys -
a germ on your fat sweaty fingers
can carry a virus that lingers -
a sentence is all it requires
then it seeps down the internet wires
and then you’ll unwittingly spread it
to every poor sod who has read it.
Use a pencil instead of a pen
and …..don’t talk to any strange men.

And if you do have to endure it
then toilet paper can cure it.

I hope this is useful to you
and clarified what you must do
