Sally Smith and Covid

Sally Smith and COVID


Sally Smith has lost her once radiant smile.
She won't even eat or traverse outside her door.
She was once cordial and had a joyous personal style,
Sally is so smitten with news about said virus, that I totally abhor.

People die everyday from accidents, and multiple fatal diseases.
But Sally is brainwashed by unfounded media fears they love to spread.
There are days I want to hug the fear out of her with multiple squeezes.
But there Sally is, lying in bed, counting cases,which,do not at all mean, dead.

Negative thinking to me is a choice, ruins your body, hastens an early death.
Sally keeps sanitizing with ferocity,everything she sees, removing her wedding ring,
She doesn't know anymore if she is alive or has any warm breath.
For Sally is but one of billions  who think this pandemic is the plague and ever so proud of it, do daily, so erroneously sing!

You and I are pretty hip to the confettied BS falling on sheeples each day. I know people get mad at us, when we say, "don't listen and believe anything." but, they really do.(biggest scam I ever saw)vaccines will show up and people really think that covid will end. Nope. So many lies. Ugh.Panagiota xx

Sad fact is far too many profit from preaching death, doom and gloom and how--THEY- can save you if --ONLY- you will do as --THEY- order/command. The virus is a political weapon , used by some. A sad fact my friend. God bless....

Hello dear Robert! Both you and Tom are wise to the shenanigans of power and control. We are being played like violins. Anyone with 1/2 a brain knows this is a political/Money gambit. As soon as the ecomony soared, I Knew they would play a game called COVId, to shut everthing down. We cannot have a Good economy before November. Gates has to collect on his magic vaccine plus all the goofs profiteering like pirates on the billions of brainless wonders who hang on to media ignorance masqueading as truth. Panagiota xx

People seem to thrive on doom and gloom, there's more to life than a virus. Tom

Of course, it has drama and tragedy in it. Who cares if we are well and happy and can function. Being a VICTIM of anything makes you are a hero! People that work and are law abiding do not mean anything anymore. Only if you have a disease or are a rank criminal are you respected. Add troublemakers, drug addicts and rioters, That list is endless,,how we cheer for them.((((( Government? Only rank criminals are loved. We al, know who they are, It's very depressing. Evil thrives and goodness and virtue is despised. Hence, all, hail the virus! Very sick..and I mean in the soul. We love fear, deathand blame. Panagiota xx
