(“Contagion III”, 2020, original pen and ink and oil)

Dr Fauci

In the infallible world of cause and effect
Every action has its reaction
And to every sane person
Beyond the age of about ten
This is simply a given.

What is less clear is when, how and where
These reactions will manifest.
So as time passes and nothing seems to happen
Those responsible, and those effected
Begin to wonder if they ever will.

Enter stage Left, Dr Fauci, 
The best thing since sliced bread and mastermind 
Of not only gain of function research
But also the official reaction and imposition
To the result of this research gone wrong.

Will Fauci ever face the consequence 
Of the hundreds of millions killed by his virus,
And even greater numbers killed by the vax?
Not likely in this life, but surely Hell awaits, 
Ever patient, ever present, at the very bottom.
