Everyone is talking about covid nineteen.
It’s a topic of interest, so I will too.
What I know of the damned thing is not very much.
Complicated descriptions my mind cannot touch.
I am astounded by what viruses can do.
It seems like they are consciousness and a machine.

We don’t care about origin as we once did.
We’ve skyrocketed past that. The world in crisis
Is concerned with immunity and transmission
And a war between them and us now has begun.
Accusations of where it came from we dismiss
Lest we enter places that heaven would forbid.

Yet there is some hell present, but not all that much,
In the form of protesters of God only knows.
To drink pee or drink Clorox is not a fair choice.
Do you nut cases out there deserve a free voice?
Those who want to remain healthy strongly oppose
Outrageous demonstrations of drama and such.

The body has its own ways of fighting disease
Its defenses are elegant. Yet as a whole
Humankind is susceptible to invasion.
The virus knows its enemy has next to none
Of the virtue come vital in saving its soul.
In this experience there’s a lesson to seize.
