May 2020
Made redundant
knocked out of the game
because a virus whose name
is on the tip of my tongue
fired its bullets from the
viral gun
and killed the economy,

killed?
not really
but wounded and now
it's
missing in action

I went missing in Acton once
but that's another tale.

Hope is on hold
a bit like Ryanair and
refunds,

you know things will resume
but you want your money now.
ps Ryanair, I'm a fan, got any freebies?
