Warm Welcome

In eerie voice chief ghost spoke, “we have many more to welcome”
“More lost souls join us tonight, released from bodies by conflicts,”
“While they war on colour and creed, we will hug them one by one!”

Here in the U.S., we just passed 100,000 deaths due to covid-19 - so this is very apt for our times-
