Covid-19
The new name of the horror
portrays the demon "COVID-19".
Entrapping the mankind with its enigma,
terrorizing the rush of blood
it comes with its half-scarred faces,
all in blood and blemish.
Every little thing is screwed up
from the very midnight it has shown up.
Ruination has started clutching its hands,
the way mankind has smashed nature
is the way it's taking their lives without any mercy.
Have we ever seen this scorching side of nature?
No, we've never and none will be willing in future!
It's like the fate has turned fatal,
the termination of our vices,
and the dismal result of our karma.
People who has shed blood for the sake
of religion, caste, creed, colour or community
are now in the imprisonment of Corona.
The novel virus, has never been found
so pathetic, so vulnerable and so deplorable
to eradicate the human race from its roots
and been proven as horrendous as a pandemic.
WHO, from time to time, declares
to maintain social-distancing
as if a sneeze or a cough in public
or chilling in hordes can snatch the lives.
Public curfew, lockdowns,
feel like cities turning into deserts,
humans wrapped in enclosed boxes
and lives molded in the fire balls of panic.
One step out of the home,
and it's a clean invitation to the demon in our house
to spread its empire and eat to the core of our lungs.
Slow yet steady, COVID-19 without gasping
knocking down our regular lifestyle to the death.
No more time to waste in laziness,
it's the moment to accelerate and haste.
Repeat your hands in sanitizing
to remove the fear of COVID-19.
Eat fresh, spend your time in home,
and omit the situation occurring in Rome.
Stay away from circulating the fake things,
there is the cry of the dead what Corona brings.
Let's not jump in the grief-stricken pond,
it's the time to fight back together against this demon!
