I left home without it.
Oh not to worry nobody will notice!
Oh my, look at him not wearing a mask.
He must have a dead wish!
Oh well it’s his life.
Oh and the lives of all those around him too!
No worries though, we need a few to die, the world is too crowded anyway…
But not in my family, I need to protect our elderly folks and those with complex health issues.
Yeah, but those over there can die, I don’t know them anyway.
Oh mind you, maybe they have families too, elderly folks and those with complex health issues too?
Maybe that’s not fair then.
Maybe I should remember to pick up my mask and indeed wear it!
Maybe if I want to save my family I should save other families too?
I left home today with my mask and I’m keeping one in my car and my pocket too just in case.
You never know who’s asymptomatic or who’s infected.
Or indeed if I am!
Ode to the Mask!
