day TWELVE HUNDRED and THIRTY ONE


When The Virus Is Over

When this virus is beaten,
when the lockdown is over,
and we'll all be partying
in the streets.
There will be a financial crisis
like nothing seen before.
Every country in the world
will be in more debt than ever.
It'll make 1929, or 2008 look like
losing a pound coin down
the back of the settee.
That's when the real shit will
really hit the fan.
When every government in the world
is going to be making cutbacks
that will make any other depression,
or recession we've been through,
seem like nothing.
Nothing at all.
We're going to be seeing things
I shudder to think of.
In the good days when the
virus is over.
