Covid-19

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjZL5a6PeGo

Why are people so afraid of running out of toilet paper 
it is not a cure, a vaccine, nor a rose pill for its taper 
It has disrupted our lives, a scoundrel settling like vapor 
threatening our lives, as we in disbelief and stoic stupor 
continue to be vigilant citizens in a world of honor
It has become a world of hand sanitizers with no peer 
now only a higher power can somehow draw us near 
Despite footbumps and eye noddings we are all dear 
as human beings we need a solid cure, and no not fear
lets hold fast in solidarity across the world and adhere 
Why is this happening we ask, ourselves and others 
all I can tell you is that we are all sisters and brothers
we all need to do our best to help, and stick together 
we need to eradicate IT , for its HEALTH that matters 
so remember in fragility , IT is a wind, we are feather 
ITS NAME? COVID-19, and its not going to win the fight 
as long as we remember, to pass that torch of LIGHT 
we can win this thing together, drive it out of sight 
be patient, stay calm, and your going to be alright 
this is Mystic Rose , wishing you, a good night !

A great read! It appears everyone where I live is also buying up all the stocks of flour - I'm presuming to bake bread. I think it must be a control thing.

Great rhyme. A very serious problem & yet the media has managed to politicize this with fear mongering & seem to take pleasure in upsetting the country & peoples' lives.
