Little Corona

Little Corona
declared one day
"I will be the strongest,
most powerful I say !"

"I shall conquer the world,
and establish my reign.
The world in my hands,
never free again !"

"The fittest shall survive,
as Darwin said.
And all the weaklings,
will sadly be dead"

"Ridden with fever,
cough and cold,
the world will suffer,
the young and the old...."

"My reign will start
where its most populated,
I think its China"
little Corona speculated.

"I will then go on 
to the Americas,
the world's most famous,
celebrated landmass."

"And that's not the end"
little Corona  went on,
"I will destroy the world,
my reign will go on !"

"I will make sure,
none can escape, NONE !!
Try as hard as they might,
to fight me or run."

"I am the most powerful,
and I am very clever.
I will conquer the world,
You can defeat me NEVER !!"

Or so Corona thought,
being little and immature.
But man is much smarter,
and will certainly find a cure !
