Birmingham Poem (COVID-19)
- If the pandemic begins to worsen
- Keep it together but 6 feet apart;
- Social distancing length of a tall person,
- Communication by voice, eyes and heart.
- We need poetry now more than ever,
- It’s limited social interaction;
- Social distancing “ let’s stay together
- On digital platforms, an attraction.
- Our hands are cracked, weve used up all the soap,
- A virus savages us without pity;
- Social distancing poetry is hope
- And we need that in Birmingham city.
