A Safety Warrant: Corona Alert Poem by Paramananda Mahanta

A safety warrant: Corona alert

O man of filth and evil,
You look scary and pale
Stop pressing the switch of death.
Listen carefully for your sake
Tell me truth don't be haste,
Where is your home?
How is your health?
Who is your nurse?
Who is your doctor?
You are sick
You are weak,
I have a news for you
You returned afterlong,
Moon is overhead now
To see you still breathing,
But your touching time is fleeting.

I am your fair wife
But touch you may be my death,
Rather I choose your confinement.
For two weeks or a month,
Hope you care
For safe family and home,
Safer community anda safe nation
We all must endure an isolation,

I can't give you a lease
Or a close space to sneeze,
No more alcohol for your drink
Keep sanitized often at basin sink,
Curtail your freedom tobail your clan
Stay at home and don't eat with chums,
Wear a mask never shake with hands
Life is precious than gold or band,
It is time to listen as a man
And count days to fulfill our mission,
If you are safe I will kiss you first
It is timeto save our hats.
