Consent

COVID-19 has brought on a whole new conundrum

far beyond our fear of dying

for now vaccines are being ordered

or risk loss of job or privilege

“Second class citizenry!” they cry

“Unfair!”

“Unjust!”

“Unrighteous!”

“I will not consent!” they proclaim

beneath their stolen yellow stars

yet drink water laced with fluoride

sprinkle iodized salt on their meals

drive cars both licensed and insured

to the next vociferous Freedom Rally
