Poem

Stay Home Save Lives


It was the twelfth month.
Thousands had succumbed
Thousands upon thousands
Frantic for breath
In hygienic hospitals
Hidden from public view.
All had loved ones
And things still left to do.

We cowered inside
Peering through blinds
Attempting to hide
From the spectre that stalked
Streets far and wide
Seeking the unwary
Incessantly scary -
Envoy of death.

Lost months of lamenting,
Church bells unrelenting.
Masked men with eyes like reptiles
Raided supermarkets
Seeking solace and cider
As dread spread wider
Like a river that has burst its banks.
And we gave thanks
For life.
