Nurses and teachers
Following preachers;
Political leaders,
Fairy tale readers;
Idiot savants
Whom no data daunts;
Masters of shilling
Making a killing;
Prudence relaxers,
Smug anti-vaxxers:
All see the same signs,
Fall in the same lines;
By virus bested,
Positive tested:
It claws at the lungs
And silences tongues;
Now filled with regret,
They pray they can get
To hospital beds
And miracle meds.
