Covid Blues- 03 Poem by Unnikrishnan Sivasankara Menon

Covid Blues- 03

Rating: 5.0


3. A mask

I had used a mask
When I played the villain
In a school play;
Never thereafter.

The pandemic sets in
Everyone, to ward it off,
Wears a mask;
So do I.

With half the face
Hidden under the mask
Where is the need
for make-up!
