Text Prompt
Write a poem exploring the word normal.
Nothing Normal
All life came to a halt one day
but that has happened before
but this time it was not threat of
King Kong Dracula or Frankenstein-
Nor a bomb or missile attack
Nor was it a world war with guns
this time it was an unseen killer
from the other side of divine
Normal is a walk to the market
a drive in the car, going to school
with a smile,a lunch box with books
a clean dress and joyful looks
normal is playing games
hugging and shaking hands
eating together, sitting close
uncovered is the nose-
All this was reversed
stay indoors wash hands
wear a mask and stay six
feet apart, or breath your last.
