Poem Title:
Poem
There is an inhuman and invisible enemy that must be stopped. The Coronavirus reminds me of one of the last great menaces to the world and to God. There once lived an evil man, threatening, deceitful, and manipulative. It was as if he rose from the dry ash heaps to the top of a fiery hill, which should not have been surprising because there is always a smoldering from the last fire. Moreover, when he rose to power, with deadly force, he swept across a continent. He excelled through the power of FEAR and appeasement. As a dictator, he possessed and controlled the means of producing massive weapons with plans to unveil even greater weapons of mass destruction. Prior to him, it appeared that the age of kingdoms and empires were over and a whole new world of republics was going to be the new norm. Unfortunately, this new dictator was intent on creating an entirely new world. For starters, he had evil intentions of wiping out an entire race of people, and but for the grace of God, he nearly succeeded. He was a master of manipulation and struck with the force of intimidation and terror, aligning himself with like-minded perpetrators of death and destruction. Like an epidemic, he sought hosts to attack and kill like the coronavirus. He was the deadly disease that became a pandemic nightmare as he defeated one country after another. For a while, it seemed the world was frozen with FEAR and hypnotized by his spell of hate, and by the time the free world awakened and opposed him, 6 million Jews were murdered. He and his reign of terror ended as did others like him, as will all other enemies of God and civility. Most would agree that Hitler and the likes of him were indeed like a virus. All would agree that FEAR is indeed torment, but the turning point begins when our FEARS are faced. In conclusion, those who governed and fought the human virus in the 40s became known as "The Greatest Generation". They were thus because they prayed, faced their FEARS, resisted their enemy, and fought to the end. May this, our generation, do no less. 031920PoSp
