The Big Issue went online. For a short while that's fine. During lockdown.It's not safe to go out and no customers about. During lockdown.But when vendors can't sell how will they stay well? During lockdown?Vendors need that support and customer rapport. Even in lockdown.
The USA's gone mad but their leader's a cad. They won't stay in lockdown.Trump's really insane. He makes that quite plain. He won't push lockdown.Just twittering's his thing. No leadership he'll bring. Or order a lockdown.The same in Brazil with numbers over the hill. And not much lockdown.Their numbers have upped. Ours almost stopped. Stay in lockdown. Our leaders are strong. We'll do no wrong. We're in lockdown.For the medics it's hell to get people well. The rest stay in lockdown. They're out in the front. They carry the brunt. As we stay in lockdown. When the old get sick, they die pretty quick. Even with lockdown.They die all alone. Their loved ones at home. 'Cause of lockdown.In slums, camps and prisons the cases might be millions. When they have lockdown.So many are sick. It really is quick. We need lockdown.Official figures say millions but it could be trillions. Even with lockdown.When the world thought it beat, the pandemic turned up the heat. Not enough lockdown.Victoria, where cases were few, suddenly found they just grew. When they lifted lockdown.
The financial market has slumped. This is no mere bump. Caused by lockdown.Many jobs are now gone. They must feel so alone. Caused by lockdown. Mental health has gone down, people wearing a frown. 'Cause of lockdown. Violence in the street. Innocent Chinese are beat. 'Cause of lockdown. No room for blame, nor hate, it's a shame. Stay in lockdown.But caring has grown to those on their own. Even in lockdown. We all help each other. All sisters and brothers. Even in lockdown.
