Coronaviral
Pandemic Pandemonium
Community breakdown
Is the only success
In the free for all
Isolation desperation
Naming and shaming strangers
A prerequisite
Of the ignorance
Regarding infection
Scientific rejection
In favour of chaos
And food shortages
Medical academicals
Are humanitarians
Risking their lives
For the wider good
Of public health
When so many people
Think we live
In a dystopian fantasy
Where dog eats dog
As the strong survive
On each other’s bones
Until all they have left
Are the scraps
And a few sheets
Of recycled toilet paper
