Covid19

#CoronaVirus


The end of both western 
And eastern civilization?
As the case maybe, since none 
Truly pay heed or sacrifice to 
Neither the gods nor titans.
Anyway, Armageddon is here!
The end, shifted 20 years 
From the year 2000.
Has come finally 
Killing a little less 
Than its first cousins
AIDS, and Ebola
Yet,
The world has grown timid
Shaken with fear and uncertainty.
All playing victims, no heroes
And ignoring actual facts;
The varied adverse effects of bio weaponry,
CDC's role in the creation and spread
Of diseases,
World politicos et.al 
Pharmaceuticals; will science solve this?
Lest, hope tarries at arm's reach
Dig shallow graves with 
Altruistic precision
And fate, faith - 
It might just pass,
But if it doesn't
Welcome to the end of the world
In a smirked face.
