OUR BRAVE NEW WORLD IN COVID-19 A.D. 2020

To the north,
A locked border

To the south
Martial law

And all around
      A microscopic killer,
   Swirls unseen...
  Invisible death,
 Pouncing with crowns

For better or worse
This is our world

As we have made it
And now must live it

Nowhere to run
North or South

And microbes slip
Across borders
Unseen

And reappear...
Having conquered
From within

TEXAS OKAYS BEER WITH FOOD DELIVERY:...Covid-19, the current World Villain, is making for some hellacious societal adjustments. Texas Governor Greg Abbot, aware that many Texans are now having their food delivered, yesterday okayed the delivery of beer and other alcohol beverages with that grub. This from a news report published this morning by Star-Telegram.com: [Gov. Greg Abbott late Wednesday issued a waiver that allows restaurants to deliver alcoholic beverages along with food purchases to customers, including beer, wine and mixed drinks.] Now there's real comfort food. I'm not much of a beer-drinker, but it may just be that I'll soon be, really because I suspect that our excitable local taquerias are not stocking my beloved Shiraz wine. There have to be about 150 taco joints in my hometown and now that pretty much all local restaurants have closed to dine-in, well, they all deliver or risk going out of business. Soon, the eateries will go full 24-hour service and the state will approve sale of beer and other drinks around the clock. We are in uncharted waters with this Coronavirus and, boys, we must be flexible...
