POEM " THE MODERN PLAGUE"

THE MODERN PLAGUE.



Countless centauries have dealt with sickness
The black plagues have dealt such death
And we blamed the witch’s wickedness
On such beliefs as the devil’s wealth.

The old plagues were a viral type
This new plague has no source
With all that the cancer hype
This is the death with such remorse.

Live life to its fullness,
Celebrate each child’s birth,
Our life is full of wellness,
We can’t control our girth.

We lived life so well,
Took care of our little selves.
What put us into this hell?
What rule did we so shelve?

The beast has struck,
And will strike again
We have no luck
The beast will power gain.

Now it is our young that it targets
We must stand strong and argue.
In the future this monster will be beat.
This disease will cease to be due.

Our struggle will never end
Our fight will only conquer
We will continue to comprehend.
The slow death will haunt no longer.

This creature will be beat
This new plague of our century
It will surely be a feat
Put this hell into a memory.
