Virus era
............................
Once upon a time
in a remote province
the deadly virus
completed its growth cycle.
It was not noticed when small
only after it had spread
did it obtain the title of Virus.
**
Always viruses want to
remain in the high places....
to shine forever as the bright stars
their wide view of the world
was previously only by standing on the roofs
and in front of the outer doors of houses,
they secretly listened to the movement of life they could only listen to
within the walls...
**
We owned ourselves again
when we escaped that plague
travelled away in different directions
but viruses
breed as fast as the speed of light
but for us, We went extinct
those times when
locusts were falling on us from everywhere...
soon the crops angrily run off the crops were devoured
and the weeping spring followed
it ran on the streets of the night
stared at the distant glowing stars
as they were looking
for things they have lost...
others disappeared within barrels of soil
but now
may you see viruses everywhere
and in all sizes
One of them
sits in your screen
sometimes dances like a nasty worm
then becomes a human holding a dagger
attacks the keyboard and the pen....
even the whole of existence
while at other times
they jump off the skin
burrow beneath it
no one will be left sleeping calmly
**
In the era of
pandemics
Viruses wish
to stay high
to shine brightly
instead of the stars

Oh Dear Robert M Smith, the viral paradise is a unique description for our modern life, well done and thanks, stay well and keep writing
Unfortunately we are in the strangling grip of a deadly virus that thrives on a foreign body. it has subdued not one bunch of people or a country but the entire mankind and the whole world! It has brought life to a standstill and man lives in perpetual fear! I liked the way you have delineated its evolution and the high station it enjoys now. Well crafted! A 10

The virus is still leading humanity to darkness and nothingness. A beautiful poem brilliantly woven depicting a very small creature that can terminate mankind.
The age of Virus Thought provoking poem High craftsmanship
10 + for the incredible imagination at work in this frightening poem
I have never pictured a virus until I read this and I kid you not, imagining them gives me the creeps! ! ! There are some viruses that are more inconvenient than anything else- -but the killers live to kill as if they were made by demons to torture mankind... the world needs to come together to defeat the current monster virus
sometimes dances like a nasty worm then becomes a human holding a dagger attacks the keyboard and the pen.... even the whole of existence while at other times they jump off the skin burrow beneath it no one will be left sleeping calmly- - these lines brought them alive skin-crawlingly alive - shiver
