Virus
I was driving some more today
You know, American style
Running basic errands
30-60 minutes of driving
Required.
I couldn’t help
But see myself
The way I am
A virus, creeping along
Blood lines carved out
In the land.
Humans are a pestilence
I am the lamb
Or am I ?
I’m driving just the same
A virus, deadlier than
HIV–
just human existence
Is deadly, sinful
And harrowing.
