Letter to the Editor - To mask or not to mask, there is no question

Why wear a mask? you may ask …

Well other than being a menial task ...

The virus is quiet, the virus is stealthy

Even latching on in secret to the healthy

You may think you’ll be fine, you may think it could never be you

But when it infects your old auntie you’ll wonder “did I do everything I was supposed to do?”

That little cloth square that covers your face

Can diminish the prospects of infecting the human race

We know they’re not comfortable

We know they’re not fun

But you can wear it to protect others, just like a gun

So hook it on your mirror

Keep it ready in your purse

And let’s all avoid putting grandma in a hearse.
