Antisocial Society by Rh Factor

we keep our distance at each other’s insistence
it’s reality from manifest absurdity
eyes on the figures watching only what matters
rates of novel infection and mortality
a grim calculation: while we’re summing the stricken
we know menace multiplies distributively

chorus:
antisocial society , anti-thetical dichotomy
we’re interconnected, disassociatively

closing our borders every home is a fortress
the frontier is attendant just outside our front doors
we accept isolation with growing frustration
plodding toward redemption being bored to tears
alone in our castle, taking stock of our chattel
rearranging furnishings we haven’t moved in years.

chorus

into the kitchen, estimating provisions
comparing what we have to the things we will need
we empty our pantry while dreading the journey
searching barren shelves for bare necessities
back home, washed and sanitized we hope that the other guys
were equally as cautious as we tried to be

chorus

we are learning to live apart together
maybe one day when all of this is over
we can learn to live together, together
