Self isolation really isn’t a
Big deal to me. I like being alone
At home. I’m happiest when on my own.
Watching TV. I’ve been OK so far.
I do not want to go out in the car
I’m happy here. While extroverts may groan,
Effective quarantining has been shown
To halt the spread. Though I’m feeling sub par.
The doctors say I don’t need to be tested.
It’s likely not THE bug, but just the flu
And there’s no money left to be invested
In treatment, so I’ll stop at home and stew.
And if I was infectious ere I nested
I hope I didn’t pass it on to you…
