Flu Coup
they were like-lightning to close churches
and quick to reopen taverns and nail salons
keep us 90 proof pacified and coifed
there's incentive to claim covid the cause of death
millions to be made from testing kits -the mirage of a vaccine
in the chaos their burning books and breaking glass
acting like the spawn of nazis
weren't they so eager to shut us down and keep us down
they want to prolong discomfort
because discomfort fans the flames of change and revolt
another coup attempt is brewing
if this flu coup doesn't work
there's another brewing in the
shadows of the west wing
in the bon fires of November
you can be certain
