We the Sheep

This 'COVID 19' is Trump's fault The Dems say because he delayed The GOP maintains The Dems went insane Each party blaming the other as 'We the People' suffer And who among us trusts the reports from China or Iran Can we be sure this is not a plot to bring down Washington Will we ever know the truth -- Assuredly not, for World leaders pay us no heed ~ We the sheep to slaughter

Nice write Gershon & to the point of the many unanswered questions. As bad as the Corona virus is, I hope it was a natural occurrence & not the Chinese experimenting in the lab with germ warfare or to use as a means of disrupting other countries.

Hope you are right, but I am not so optimistic. Thanks, Dennis. ~ Gershon

I am not under-reacting, over-reacting or even reacting yet. I have learned.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out. I moved a lot of my money into cash in January because I didn't trust what the Chinese government was saying. Great poem. Stay frosty my friend.

The most accurate account I've read to date. Mass hysteria orchestrated by the media, we are indeed sheep if we allow ourselves to be. Great write Gershon...Ron.

Gershon, Topic of the year, but don't call the virus COVID-19. That is the name of the disease. They are reporting a new mutation of the virus SARS-COV-2. We have 'S' and 'L'. Pray you don't get 'L'. Stay safe Soup, stay informed. And for Pete's sake, stay off cruise ships. -R

LOL, yes everything is okay at our sanctum. Maybe wash your hands more. But you may want to peel that 'Made in China' sticker off your boat. -R
