thwarting, zapping
eventuality, inevitability, 

opportunity utilitarian death
crowning glory fêted within 
netherlands immortality

By the 8’o clock warning device
Raised up undesirably at a lazy pace
Retrieving the welcoming hateful whole day race.

Radical planet friendly measures

Since advent of Homo sapiens
objection overruled against immortality

AN UGLY VISITOR, CORONA VIRUS

We have an ugly visitor;
Corona Virus is his name.
He's prowling like a predator
With an aim to devour or maim.

He disregards every convention.
Schools, airlines,... he shuts down;
Doctors are in his line of...

I am a woman.
I may be small, but I stand tall.
I am not a little girl.

The seeds of self-destructive strife
Were sown soon after drums and fifes
Extolled success from breaking free
From Britain's aristocracy.

The Constitution's writ accedes
Peculiar Institution's needs:
Proportional House seats would be
Increased counting slave property.

Cross purposes within the cloth
Of nationhood revealed...

cavalierly fiddles indiscriminately

silently holistic thought fragments

chaos reverberates within
besieged cerebral corridor,
quotidian mental onslaught

There seems to be a problem inside my mind,
There are dragons roaring behind closed doors
Princesses scraping along prison bars
And usually dancing fairies trying to dig their way out

There are sparkling diamonds buried beneath mountains
Waterfalls quashed...
