Corona Killer Poem by louis rams

Corona Killer



It came down upon us like rain from the skies
People wondering if they would live or die
It started in ASIA or so they say because anything
That they can catch becomes their prey.
Bats, cats, dogs and more was being eaten by the score.
Bat droppings are taken out of the caves and used as fertilizers day to day.
You read about chicken droppings being fed to farmed fish, and this
Is what goes onto our dish.
So many stories come out of there, and being posted for everyone to share.
Pictures of open marketslooking like a shopping mall but not separated
Like a stall.
(the plague that caused the Black Death originated in China in the early to mid 1300s and spread along trade routes westward to the Mediterranean
And northern Africa. It reached England in 1348 and northern Britain and Scandinavia by 1350) it reduced the world population by over 100 million.

Now if this killer is not stopped today then history will repeat itself in the same way'
"Keep your distance "and " stay at home "is what they say
So you could live another day.

If a man fails to take certain action, the nature will force him to that action, Whatever nature does that looks like strife Seems for the long-term good of life.
