Numbers

You may go shopping once a day
As long as you stay 1.5 m away
And buy no more than 2 cans of peas
And only 1 block of cheese.

Exercise outside for 60 minutes
Within the prescribed limits
Do not stray more than 5 K
Or you will surely pay.

Make sure you’re home by 8
Woe betide you if you’re late
For police officers without pity
Stalk the desolate nocturnal city.

Count your breaths, 1, 2
Meditation will pull you through
In and out, 3, 4
Try not thinking anymore.

On 14 September we’ll be free
Or not, as the case may be
6 weeks could become 8 or more
Who knows what numbers lie in store?
