NOT IN THE SAME PLACE (July 27) —
The Old Man:
No reason for panic. Keep calm. Carry on.
We’ve seen pandemics before.
And, although the climate is changing,
it is not as though we were at war.
Things may get worse. As a matter of fact
peak hurricane season is nearing;
but we are in position for launching Mars missions
and at the launchpad the weather is clearing.
The “Yute”:
I say, FUCK IT, we get in our cars
and drive somewhere they’ve opened the bars.
And the clubs. And the restaurants.
Staying inside in summer sucks.
Can’t go to the park or the beach or a movie.
We need to get OUT. We need to PAR-TY!
And, did I mention, we're sick of Netflix.
We need to have sex — and so do the chicks.
We're at home — ALONE! — while Twitter is trending
