Coronavirus... And The Eyes Of Darkness Poem by Shaun Cronick

Coronavirus... And The Eyes Of Darkness

Rating: 4.8


The Eyes of Darkness is a 1981 novel,
Written by Dean Koontz.
In it there is a reference to a killer virus,
A man made virus created in Wuhan, China.
Simply written for dramatic effect as 'Wuhan-400.'
Wuhan is the city from where the Coronavirus originated.
In his book this 'Wuhan-400' is called the perfect weapon,
Perfect for biological warfare.
This cruel irony makes one think.
And lets not forget Stephen King's,
Haunting and incredible novel The Stand.

Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic reminds of outbreak-movies, like Contagion (2011) . Prof. Sanjeev Nanda is a big proponent of these themes in media, little did he know it would become a reality one day!
