Food for thought in that poem! Reminds me of the worries on election day and wearing masks (so necessary) and then fascinate? Isn't that also the name of the hats that the Brits wear at weddings? Fascinators? Is that what they are called? I like the juxtaposition between SUFFOCATE and FASCINATE at play in the poem--

Subject: Masked days
On and off yesterday
it took
at least two hours
to come up
with FASCINATE
as the solution
to the daily newspaper nine-letter anagram
and yet today
one look
and SUFFOCATE
leapt from the page
Must get around
to loosening my mask
