Covid, I Hate You

Covid, I Hate You

Covid I hate you!
You ravish and take whom you please
Leaving only destruction and fear
Picking and choosing at random

Covid, I hate you!
Isolating generations in need of company
Seizing the very organs within your victims
Young, old, in between, you care not

Covid, I hate you!
Preying on the very air one breaths
Scattering your vicious deadly self as a ghost
Killing the very ones fighting to save others

Covid, I hate you
Sneaky and leaving each to only shadow box
Waiting for any minute break to invade
Strangling the life out like weeds and vines

Covid, I hate you
Soon we will rise and defeat you
We will drive you where you cannot hide
God will not let you win, your time is near.

"To everything there is a season...." and mankind is certainly doing its best to spread the virus everywhere, where it continues to mutate in order to multiply and replenish the earth. I enjoyed your poem, but the end won't be near until we run out of idiots! Aloha! Rico
