So the time has come
When we walk the streets like criminals,
Masks on our face
Disguising who we are.
The law says we must were them,
But for those who wear glasses
The glasses steam up.
That being the case
We may be entitled,
Entitled to condensation.

Tell me about it - went to have a haircut on friday and couldn't see a thing - I was all steamed and removed glasses and still couldn't see much thanks to poor eyesight. went to sit in the chair and ended up having to take the mask off as well for the benefit as the hairdresser. A nude head!!
I too had a haircut on Friday, it was not too bad, I did not have to wear a mask the barber did and I can see reasonably well without glasses but I was confused about this short-haired person looking back it me in the mirror.
Went to the croguet club yesterday and the comment one to another was "Doesn't he look young!" I took that as a complement.

GOOD SUNDAY UNCLE ANDY ~ Brian here ! Loved Donavan & Grystal a great era for Folk Msic so my Grandad tells me ! Loved the POEM ~ Masks & Masquerades will be a part of everyday Life until Christmas. Angela & I have been to Masked Balls and love them ! Perhaps they will be a feature for Christmas Parties ~ We hope so. I guess most of your Poems are *Free Verse* and very effective - no inhibition. Our last two have been an attempt @ Free verse ~ please check ~ THANKS A & B
Blessings & Joy to You & Yours
Love Angela ~ Brian & Smokey !
Tell me about it. I had a steamy eye test on saturday morning.
Also I find i suffer with shortness of breath when conversing with a mask in place.
Great piece and pun on a contemporary issue.
There are so many people who are going to suffer, the ones I feel for are those who have hearing problems and use lip reading to understand people. My hearing is very good but even I find it strange not to see peoples lips move when they are speaking through a mask, I think we must all use lip reading to a minor extent.
Thank you d a.
