Virus away

The simplicity and extravagance of those times
when I could just look outside
with a sneer and say how dull the world looked
so unfit for a day out
those wasted days
I spent inside
hoping I didn't have to leave the house
opting to live inside a cage
that wasn't locked still
a living option that hardly meant a thing
a treasure unloved
which I now tear over
after days of being worn out indoors
in a state of indefinite quarantine
