Rapunzel

In the town of Corona, 

locked up in her tower

I plead with Rapunzel 

to let down her hair.

 

Rapunzel, Rapunzel

your hair is so long,

we’re socially distanced;

how can it be wrong?

 

Rapunzel, Rapunzel

It’s two metres long,

potentially longer,

so thick and so strong.

 

Rapunzel, Rapunzel

I could wear a mask.

Just let your hair down.

Is it too much to ask?

 

Rapunzel, Rapunzel

I’ll go round the bend?

They’ve furloughed us princes

Where will this all end?

 

Rapunzel, Rapunzel

I could take the test?

Or should we just FaceTime

perhaps that is best?
