Now These Words Are TRUE...
And... NOT From Some Cartoon...
Where A Dog's Being Used... !!!!!!!

Because.....

YIKES... There Are SPIKES..
of Infections Spreading... !!!

That Could Cause A New CRISIS... !!!

That’s... Much WORSE Than ISIS... !!!

SPIKING Here And SPIKING There... !?!

Because of BREACHES...
... CLOSING Beaches... !!!
So Now Cars Are Ensnared...
Like Stars Up In Our Atmosphere... !!!

Because MILE LONG Queues...
Are Now In View That Seem To Prove...

That Lots of People DON'T CARE... ?!?
And Could Really CARE LESS... !?!

About Coronas Spread...
Now That Word’s Been Sent...
From Government Heads...
That The Spread Has Cooled...?!?

Now I DON’T Think That I’m A Fool... !?!
But Am Now Getting A Little Confused... ?!?

Because... If This Is TRUE... ?!?
Why Are Infection Rates SPIKING...
Like Boots Built For HIKING... ?!?

Infection Rates CLIMBING... !!!
In Places Where Sightings...
of Groups Are Now FRIGHTENING... !!!

These... Medical Heads...
Who Are QUICK To Express...
That Corona Is FAR...................
From Reaching It’s END... !!!

In Fact Trends Now Suggest...
That It’s Gonna Progress...
And Cause People More STRESS... !!!

Because Systems Aren’t Ready...
For Spikes That Could UNSTEADY...

The Reduction of Cases...
Because People Aren’t Spacing...
Like They Have Been TOLD... !?!

Some Are Being... TOO BOLD... !!!
When They’re... Leaving Their Homes...
And These Protesters Have...
Now Indeed... HINDERED Plans... !!!
To Stop The Increase of INFECTIONS... !!!

That Are Now Being Seen...
To Be... RISING AGAIN... !!!

And Indeed Now SPIKING... !!!!
In Destinations With BIG Populations... !!!

Where Lockdowns Were EASED...
To Help STOP The FREEZE...
of Their... ECONOMIES... ?!?

But... Now It Would SEEM...
That They Were Being HASTY... !?!

And Have OPENED Up Streets...
To NEW SPIKES of... DISEASE... !?!

Because Cash SUPERSEDES...
People Being... HEALTHY... ?!?

I Dunno About You...
But It Seems STRANGE To Me... ?!?

That... Election Rallies...
Were Allowed To Receive...
Congregations To See...
The President Speak...
About Campaign Themes... ?!?

While SPIKES Are Being Seen...
Right Across Their Country... ?!?

And... NOT Just The... U.S...
But The World GLOBALLY... !?!

And Now We’re Being Told...
That There Are Countries That Hold...
DATA That... WITHHOLDS....

A Truth That’s UNTOLD... !!!

About The... REAL Death Tolls... !!!
In Countries Where Controls...
And Testing Are... LOW... !!!

Because... Pure BRAVADO...
Is What Some Leaders Have Shown... ?!?

Who Are Telling STORIES...

But What Is THE TRUTH... ?!?
WITHOUT... Allegories...

Because.....
Folks Now NEED PROOF...
That’s Water Tight TOO... !!!

That SPIKES Will NOT Now...
Start Going Through Roofs... !!!!

That AGAIN Cause LOCKDOWNS...
To RETURN To Schools …
BEFORE … Children Do... !!!!!

Because Corona's REFUSED...
To Become A... "RECLUSE"... !!!

Just Like The Folks...
Who’ve Now BROKEN Rules... !!!

By... Leaving Their Homes...
Even When There’s CURFEWS... !!!

To... PARTY And ABUSE...
POLICE And News Crews...
Over... RACE Issues...
And OTHER Things Too... !!!

That Are Causing SPIKES...
To Start Reaching NEW HEIGHTS... !?!

Now ENDANGERING Life... !!!

But... Is That Right... ???

I’ll Let You Decide...
While I Write Some More Rhymes...
About The NEW RISE of These Corona Vibes...

That APPARENTLY Now...
May Cause A SURPRISE... !!!

That WON’T Be One...
That People Will LIKE... !!!

If What It Supplies...
Are LOCKDOWNS That...
AGAIN SHUTDOWN Lives... !!!

Because of PARTY Vibes...
And... Protest Lines...

That May Now Have Caused...
... Corona To SOAR...
And Start A NEW WAR... !!!

Due To Infection Rates...
RAISING STAKES AGAIN.. !!!

In Ways That INVITE...
A NEW WAVE To RISE... !!!

Where Corona Can Find...
Ways To... Once AGAIN...

.......... “ SPIKE “.........
Well, people were warned, so shouldn't be surprised !
