Let us get vaccinated and let’s do it pretty soon
To so many things we need to become immune
We commence every day with news of daily capers
Deaths and disasters are jostling our newspapers
Switch on TV channels to view primetime deaths
Find tips on how to preserve your balance breaths
As statisticians are daily juggling many numbers
Truth lies simmering somewhere in dying embers
Desperate citizens are now rushing to the judges
If not for a shove, at least for meaningful nudges
With thousands without oxygen gasping for breath
Babas and Yogis hold forth on inevitability of death
For those who are feeling lost that IPL was no more
Betting has shifted to the daily new infections score
Let us get vaccinated while the needle can still go in
After some time, like leaders, we may get a thick skin
After our shot, we must remember it was given free
Oh, Argumentative Indian how grateful you must be!
