Quaking Terror

Run, run, run from the outbreak of quaking terror, but where can you go or hide because it's not done. Trapped, in bitter anguish, hands cuffed behind your back, it’s taken your pride, you'll remember forever. The locust has been released from its amber cage, reproducing, scatter millions, killing slowly igniting a Molotov cocktail round beings with its infected poison sting convulsing rage. People are feeling pain from the quaking terror. 3/19/2020

You have expressed yourself in powerful poetic words, Eve. This virus is spreading too quickly, and nobody can feel secure anywhere. Take care and be safe! Hugs // paul

At least we can see the locust coming...but this virus requires fumigating every one and everywhere we go...and for up to three hours it's actively infecting the fool of no precaution...so we hide away to contain the spread... i tell you this must be WAR
