Buy Product Crash


Auto Pilate
is carrion klaxon blaring
a false viral alert 

The warning signal says cadavers don’t vote:
“Let not your lying eyes
believe this smear currency contagious hoax”

With pandemic fear spreading,
speculator pockets get fatally hurt
False profits on a spit propellor decline

Supplies warehouse withering on a purchase vine,
bad news ain’t getting no spin message rebate
As more people dying are multiplying

Autocratic vexation — 
Viral cause is venture capitalist absolutely dismissed
Free market con-fidence in a virtual free-fall

Publican procrastinators watch
as the body count mount
The price of human life don’t add up to much

Global crisis  ...  impending plane of imminence crash
Priceless products in the debt cargo hold were sold 
at a discount infection rate    

Auto Pilate hollow hope cry,
while washing disdain stained hands:
“High kill yield is a ghastly good time to buy!”

Your puns are so sharply toned, its sad that profits motivate more than goodwill-
