The Deputy

Two years ago 
Man started defending 
A war with virus
Now still going on
Man's throne is unstable 
New deputy is rising up one by one 
Soon out of control
Unknown and discouraging 
Many have given up and gone
Pity the man 
Pity the digital world
Pity the innocents who have departed
Without knowing what really happened
Even those still alive are wondering 
Who will be the king 
In the next dynasty
The man or the virus
