pestilence
swallowing the seed
all a virus needs
to feast.
growing like the weed
it spreads and it breeds,
a beast.
never will concede
seeking that which bleeds
'til ceased.
and its violence we feed
with our selfish greed,
palms greased.
while covering deeds
they sell us their creed
like priests.
the virus proceeds.
and we let it speed
unpoliced.
