I woke up dazed
To a World crazed
Hopes razed
Everyone fazed.
A virus spread;
Thousands dead
Fear and dread
In everyone’s head.
No food to eat
No place to meet
Homeless on the street
Survival a feat.
Pay begrudged!
Had to budge;
A long trudge
For migrant drudge.
A life ill fated
Father berated
Feelings lacerated
Dignity macerated.
So much pain,
No bus or train,
A sorrowful refrain
Unbearable strain.
Families scattered
Livelihoods shattered,
Bruised and battered,
Torn and tattered.
Come back home
At the gloaming
To the village loam
Enough roaming!
So much fear
Far and near
Nothing clear;
Nothing dear!
No end in sight
To this blight
Unmitigated fright
Day and night.
