In Times Like These

A deadly form of virus came
from where we do not know.
Its caused a lot of death and pain
as the case numbers grow.

Move quickly by and do not touch.
Society forbids a sneeze
and coughing very much
especially in times like these.

Masked thieves, everyone	
or get away from here.
Anger is how some succumb
in the fearful atmosphere.

Gloves litter sides and streets,
discarded condoms, modern day
Under or apart six feet,
touch it once and throw away.

May science soon discover
a cure for this disease
and all the world recover
from the tragic times as these.
