Malaria Mosquito Thirst Blood Seekers Poem by Terence George Craddock
Malaria Mosquito Thirst Blood Seekers
Malaria kills dead... near half a million people a year
rich first world, countries predominantly do not care?
Mosquito-borne... diseases kills over a million people a year
safe born, distance western world far away, largely does not care?
Mild malaria... non-fatal symptoms typically include tiredness
sweating fever, upset stomach emptying vomiting, slam dunk headaches?
Severe malaria... signature mark yellow skin seizures coma death
malaria loves poverty, Africa suffers 93% of cases 94% of global death?
Mosquito-borne diseases a million people kills a year
far away safe distance western world does not care?
Stealth killer scream fly upon tiny time beating wings
mosquito buzz rapid beat whining warning whispers
cross river styx ship dark rowing vampire warm death drinks
dawn dusk blood drinker prey chemical visual heat seeks?

I was going to write a poem 'Who Is Afraid Of The Coronavirus' but media, tech giants, governments and political leaders were political spin manipulating data; using spun data for political gain, profit news headlines, while disinformation was spreading like a plague and public fear was sown into society; so instead I decided to write about a forgotten deadly killer malaria.
