Unmasked

Unmasked ©Pollyana Darrell 2020/06/01 Spiked fuzzy tennis ball From where did you crawl? Who told you to call? Your presence brought brawl Nothing could stop you at all- Not even a wall! Microscopic invader- Jeopardizing our safety Insisting on physical distancing We put up resistance to your existence Your persistence over run our self-subsistence. Stealth bomber- Invisible and deadly We did not recognize you readily While speedily and steadily you attacked us Ravaging our bodies and economies Leaving some to die alone and in ignominy. Now you have been unmasked! Though we wear the mask We see you- Marauder- In quest of plunder. Move on fear monger No more her wander. We will stay the course Be patient; social distancing en-force There is no recourse; Wear our masks until you have passed and We will be free at last!
