RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: CORONAVIRUS SERIES
Intentional Negligence
To all who lost loved ones to Covid-19
Does it help to know their intentions
To infect the young and healthy
To encourage the viral spread
To achieve herd immunity
To secure a second term?
Does it help to know they didn’t mean
To kill the vulnerable and elderly?
Does it help to know they didn’t care?
Whether intentional or folly
They did their best to spread it around
To infect as many as they could
To keep the markets thriving
Until Election Day
After that who knows?
It no longer mattered
It was all about the man on top
The man in the golden mirror
The man with a deep psychological need
To best the best and stay in power
The man of every hour
No matter how many died
