The Tragedy

The Tragedy Plague Black Death Horror God’s punishment Abandoned family members left to die alone Busy towns morph in to ghost towns Graveyards become too full Corpses scatter the gravel roads from town to town No one escapes death Not priest, nor man, nor woman, nor child Flagellants walk the street whipping themselves, singing Christian hymns neighbors shun neighbors Foul smelling odors hang in the air Village life just stopped Jews tortured for the epidemic Why has God abandoned No Hope Plague Black Death Horror -Zoe Gregg
