Don't Ask Me

Does my chest feel heavy?
Was that a special cough?
Does my head feel hotter than usual,
Should I take two weeks off?

How can a bricks and mortar company,
Recover from this blow?
Same rent owing with half the revenue,
For whatever god there is only knows,

How will those living on the precipice,
Survive, given they do?
It's little comfort when the trite reply,
It's not bad as the flu.
Who gives a shit?
Tell that through the plexi,
To the essential worker getting paid,
Minimum wage so you can buy TP.
