by Tom Clarke, inspired by the Prologue to Shakespeare's 'Romeo and Juliet'.

With airports shut
down, and travel delayed
When the virus
spread and we closed our doors
We curled up and
waited, while our sanity frayed.
We all wore our
masks, and we washed our hands
We found ways to
cope, with one or two drinks
our houses were our
own mysterious lands
But trapped we all
felt, we started to sink
From fair Wuhan,
whence from it all issued
A threat to fix
that would need more than tissues
