Just Another Corona Poem
Millennials are spring breaking
boomers are hunkering down
clowns are pointing fingers...again
no vacancy at the coroners lounge.
Florists and pharma are stacking chips
the panicked are dusting off prayers
the media is tossing frantic to the wind
the governments shutting us down
not enough bleach or kits to go around
the preppers are laughing at the desperate
the rich and guilty have all been tested
clanging glasses above the writhing masses
amidst the ribbons of tinseled towns.
but this is but a long prequel.
For much nastier things are to come.
A wise old woman once said to me
"death will always come in threes".
Somewhere in all this froth
I've lost track of the count.
