Drive-Through Covid
Testing and Bladder Control
Just waiting in a car-queue, something new
Every hour up a hundred yards or so
Readings on the MePhone, a book or two
And good ol’ Morning Al on the radio
Clutch, go, brake, clutch, inches at a time, wait
News on the up hour, and news on the down
Scan the QR code, number, name, and date
For the nice lady in a mask and gown
Hold your head forward, now strike a pose
Then up my nose the little swabbie-thing goes…
(And that’s all. Boring, eh?)
