A SECOND DOSE

Shaken by constant knocks

Out of complacent repose

We find death in every breath

Right under our very nose!

The retribution of Nature

Which power can oppose?

It has it's distinct signature

Whatever we may propose..

Overflowing stinking bins

Should sick populace close?

All our window-dressed sins

Nature shall soon disclose.

Lives spent in long queues

Devoid of energy to oppose

Are celebrating good news

Of the arrival of a second dose!
