I’ll take a free shot for my health – but only if I get a shot at $ wealth!

Written when the promotional idea for vaccination was floated that people taking a Covid shot should be automatically enrolled in a $ lottery.

“A shot for my health
why my concern?
But for my own wealth
that I discern!”

Won’t Public Health by $ lottery
sadly show up our souls as watery?

By refusing vaccination
we lack solidarity
in communal abdication
clueless insularity

“It’s freedom
to be a bum
Te Deum
jabs, who need ’em?”

While we can’t let it be our lot
to humor this kind of crackpot?
