An Ode for Our Times

Twas the night before Christmas and all through the land,

There were Karens in high places and living so grand!
They'd tell us to do this, but then do that,
And follow the rules we would just like twats.

Fear was important, in fact their main tool,

Because when fools are so fearful they are easier to rule.

See they'll do stupid things when they fear for their life,

Like wear masks in private, or vax check your wife!

All in the name of flattening the curve,

When in reality the reason was way more absurd.

Now don't get me wrong, there's a virus and it can kill,

But most will be older, or sicker; what we call vuln-rer-bull,

And to take steps to avoid is quite reasonable;

Until you realize that the mandates they issue with such derision,

Make no sense when you understand viral transmission.

A virus is gonna virus and doesn't give a fuck,

If you're working in a school or driving a truck.

It certainly doesn't care if you're wearing a mask,

And even less when by a Karen you are taken to task!

Wash your hands, cover your mouth, stay back a few feet,

But outdoor masking? Familial separation? What next will they tweet!

And I haven't even yet ventured onto the jab,

But let's, let's do it, on vaccine mandates we'll blab.

The vaccines though not true vax can certainly help mitigate,

But to cure , prevent infection when'er they mutate?

Not a cat's chance in hell, that's not the design,

And yet many believe and hence toe the line.

They cheer when our leaders issue a rallying call,

To find the unvaccinated and damn them to hell!

They shout so loud and demand your abiding,

Makes you wonder the extent of the facts they are hiding!

Let's keep under wraps all things that are not righteous,

Like blood clots, and seizures and myocarditis.

The public don't need this info you see,

Because informed choice is dangerous when you rule by decree.

For though they say their goal is the end of pandemic,

They do all they can to stoke fear and panic,

To prevent us from knowing the true thrust of their troll,

And to keep us all under a state of control.

And although they may deride the antics of Xi,

They truly admire and want them too you see.

That way they control what you see, hear and utter,

And never let you rise from out of the gutter.

They'll keep you locked down and under their thumb,

Until you start thinking, connecting....stop acting dumb!

The truth is out there and it's not based on only their choice.

Cast off binary thoughts and in your freedom rejoice!

We were put here on Earth to be governed by reason,

Not manipulated by those who would accuse us of treason

When we dare to question their political leaning

That is not built on science and sensible learning.

So fuck off Fauci, Biden and Boris!

Fuck away Trudeau and Pelosi, you bore us!

We will never submit to your mandates and guardrails,

Because freedom is bigger and will always prevail!
