America and Russia
Walk hand-in-hand
From a mission to space.
Back on land
They greet a foreign world—
Alien to them—
Covered in COVID,
In Kazakhstan.
When they last were here,
Two hundred days ago,
Trump wasn’t impeached
Although the whistle blows.
The Steelers pick up their first win
And vaping was a crisis.
That’s the last thing they were here for
Before coronavirus.
