Wiped Out

 

There are no wipes

to sanitize,

for us to wash

and wipe our hands

 

But empty shelves

are our surprise,

supply couldn't keep up

with demand

 

A single wipe's

now quite a prize,

so scarce are they

throughout the land

 

We bear the blame

we must surmise,

united but un-wiped

we stand.

this is the reason I joined WOL. to share feelings and emotions during the pandemic. you can feel the tension when walking through the cities. Everything is so... abnormal.

thanks for the poem

I have to ask - just what is clean...
And to what level do you mean?
Hence this impertinent polemical.
Connected with concerns about things chemical ! :?
