Corona Virus;
a.k.a;
Covid '19
China's Wuhan new normal
Presented its angry face
In December 2019.
With wings so swift
With teeth so sharp
With Jaws so strong
And a heart,
If any,
So heartless.

A monster like no other seen
Anywhere, anytime, this century
Faster than bush fire
Spreading through ports,
Through airports,
Opaque to border surveillance
Defying smart electronic eyes
Sparing none on its path
Leaving millions dead
Within three short months.

Changing the age-old values,
The life game-changer
Dulled vibrant city life
Within days.
Changing everything
In the world we thought
We knew so well.

We had strange new commands...
