Pestilence

The virus has spread

all too many have fallen,

man is so afraid!


14/10/20

 

Protection

Herd immunity

gives us a real fighting chance

and could have saved lives


14/10/20

 

Prediction

Many more will die,

lose their livelihoods and homes

if we don't act now.


14/10/20

 

Prologue

When pandemic ends,

the future is so certain,

man will destroy earth.

Well done John. There are many aspects to this global panic that we are not totally aware of ... leaves us 'Dancing in the Dark' for sure. We may never know what caused this virus or who was responsible ... there was enough misinformation and lost opportunities to handle it than we are aware of.

Take care ... keep safe.
