on edge
It's not just the hospitals getting overwhelmed
The thought of what is to come has everyone on edge
As almost the whole world goes into emergency isolation
The increasing mass anxiety and fear is palpable.
For sure it's going to get much worse
And it will be quite some time before it gets better
The progression of this virulent disease uncertain
The depth of the unfolding recession unknown.
Our immediate challenge is how to stay calm
When the situation is completely out of control
Breathing in and out while taking precautions
Going about our altered lives where danger lurks.
This will be the new normal for the foreseeable future
The way that everything can change overnight
Making all the structural shortcomings painfully apparent
When government and healthcare are all about the money.
But something good could come of this crisis
If we force a complete overhaul of this corrupt system
Putting the needs of all the people before business profits
Putting the current capitalist rulers out of power.
