Covid-19 Poem by Alison Mujati

Covid-19

If it's something drastic
Authentic answers need to surface

Nature is impared to this monotonous lullabye
One more diagnosis, and i'm deathly sick
Sick to think i'm next if not already in the trail

Why fighting spiritual battles with fragile flesh and bones?

The fratenity of waiting for an invisible foe
One ludicrous itch and the world thinks the horned beast caught up.

For how long and low shall we dance to this sickly tune?

Look now,
It forces a pulping world into a slumber
Dreaming of nomalcy which now stands a distant memory

When will the world view serenity again?
Will peace resuscitate again?
Are we in a melt down?
Living within fear that this Covid-19 will knock our doors.
