18 Months of Uncertainty

18 months to the day
The lockdown of China they say
Massive changes we await
Not sure when is next elate
Unable to see my nephew at born
His cuteness shines at dawn
He is now at 15 month
Uncertainty remains undone
A circuit breaker and numerous flip-flops
Malls packed with empty shops
Cooped up in this island
Dining in is again forbidden as we once again tightened
Even if re-open
When will it be re-broken
Two-thirds vaccination may be someone’s performance
With changing definition comes with what assurance
Half-life of antibodies is in question
Airborne or droplets in similar fashion
Confirmed reinfection and novel variant
Path ahead is not quite brilliant
We may use this time
To think to structure for another prime
