A Poem of the times

Come one come all to the twenties again! Where plagues abound and fears resound but with few on the mend of course discounting those who shun saying scam and would much rather the poor proletariat slave away like an automaton and even those are prone to fraying To those poor souls left to suffer for corporations care and those necasssry deaths as eugenics rears again Come thee to the future! The hopes of many-body dashed and trampled beneath powers unweilding unfeeling of filled morgues and overworked doctors and nurses and workers and children fearing for the safety of their parents escaping to virtual reality and piles of homework forgotten along with the assignments due dates. And yet only a few stops away communities denied aid and those in the towers build bridges with the bodies deemed unneeded Observe ye the Biblical event predicted in the sacred texts foretold of hiding inside homes both for fear and to flatten the curve and mounting anxiety anger frustration nations scrambling unprepared come one come all all ye behold the twenties are back and history makes yet another round.
