Once again, we're wedged in a wrinkle
of time in our lives; a wrinkle that can't
be so easily ironed out and pressed away.
Yet the "ironing-board" of solutions remains up
and challenging steam continues to gush out;
however, conflicting political sizing complicate
the strained ironing-out process, stalling progress.
Those of us familiar with social-distance look on
in curious awe at the pandemonium of the social elite
sanitizing and quarantine themselves from each other.
Meanwhile, let us not be remiss nor dismayed by the
present dilemma; let us give it inherent attention.
Before modernity, our ancestors—the help—the hidden
numbers--laid out and taught us ingenious methods
of smoothing out nagging wrinkles inhibiting our progress.
Thus, let us not forget to remember those under the mattress
techniques designed to keep us healthy and strong in our journey
along the wrinkling road towards all-inclusiveness in this nation's
pursuit of happiness through social, economical and political equality.
