Eric Ashford Poet Free verse

It's All Going Viral

Covid has left town
leaving only a sniff and snuffle.
Monkey pox is still a puzzle
we have learned not to nuzzle
a monkeys muzzle.

Now big pharm
wants us to take a vaccine
every year
even though it does not work
nor has it been properly tested.
The CDC demands we jab
our already immune kids more,
cardiac risks could be high
incidences soar.

The cynical might wonder if Pfizer
are in it for the money,
but that would be unthinkable!
The CDC is not political,
perish the thought.
Back to school, back to face diapers
back to front as usual,
all for naught.

Jeff Kyser October 22, 2022 at 12:24 PM I've heard mention of a combined vaccine with flu, covid and monkey pox, but that was probably just conservative rage porn stoking the fires. We're done with covid vax/boosters here - my wife had a reaction to the second shot, and so, no more. Eric Ashford October 26, 2022 at 10:10 AM Thanks for the comments Jeff. there will be books written about all the power-grabbing stupidity and the way some States Govender's took advantage the Covid pandemic! Unfortunately the stupidity continues. Cheers.
