POTUS et al.

Let's hide behind an acronym
Far from poets to name names
In this murky pool we swim
Sarcasm meanwhile rears and reigns!

Stuck in our homes but oft online
We've time to think and meditate
How our world leaders spend their time:
Locked in endless health debate?

A Zorro-nation we shall be
All masked like robbers on the bus
As from confinement we break free
While the Virus laughs at us...

The use of UV-rays or bleach
To kill the pest that blights our lives
Is a Rubicon no one should reach;
Scientists all roll their eyes!

Sky News keeps us all on track
Where should we apportion blame?
Some leaders go and some come back
Once again, I make no claim ...

US actor Guy Williams (1924-1989) played Zorro (1957-59 TV series)
