Haiku-19

by Fitzy Marlote

"social distancing" No more dog walks at the park Drive-thru or take-out Grocery shopping More time spent with family Increased TV time Social media Console and PC gaming "Six feet apart please." Wearing masks and gloves Disenfectant wipes for car Hand sanitizer Overreaction Political weaponry Writing in journal Splitting breaks at work Days of unspent PTO Awaiting its end
