I Have Loved the Stars too Fondly
It was the Winter of our discontent
Owned by a swirling mass of invisible death warrants
The numbers of victims mounted
To unparalleled mountains of pain.
But our will to live
Refused to die and in our
Collective efforts
We would not be taken down by
A virus’ gnawing jaws or its
Gnashing teeth.
In our moment of
Darkest vulnerability
We fought back.
We survived
And now we are
Recovering.
Angelic hands and
The minds of reason
Crushed the voices of doom.
Recovery still means
Effort determination and
Patience.
The power of the human mind
Plus the will to live
Supersede ignorance
Indifference and
Mockery.
It is a lesson for today
Tomorrow and
For all time.

The pandemic is certainly an exercise in human psychology. Fortunately, there are people like you and I wish for our lives to continue and follow the strict guidelines of experts in an effort to avoid the consequences, some of them very long term, of contracting the Coronavirus.
It would be foolish not to take the scientific route, but we have, perhaps half the population feels that they are superior and can avoid such tragedy been following them in their own self superiority.
All hail to the vaccine makers! Down with the rumor mongers…
