2019 Novel Covid-19 Grim Reaper

2019 Novel Corona Virus
Modern day
Scourge of humankind
 
Covid-19
AKA Grim Reaper
2020 visionary
Futuristic in nature
Ancient derivative  
Petry dish born
Escaped biohazard prison
Serial killer mentality  
Murderer of the masses
Randomly seeking
Those to devour
Quickly becomes
Command central
Ridding society
Of the dregs
The poor, the feeble
Made its debut
Onto the global Stage
Hidden in darkness  
Birthed to realm of life
Thought climate change  
Would be the front runner  
To bring our demise
 
Covid-19
AKA Grim Reaper
Ridding the planet
Of disposals
Disrupting routines
Heads up
Incoming fire
Comfort zone
Needs rehabbing
Hovers everywhere
Can not be seen
Till it hits
Your scene
Voraciously destroying
Wide swaths
Elderly, poor
Homeless, rich
In-betweeners
And, even a  
One-percenter or two
All ages, all walks of life
No one is immune
Wreaks havoc
Many will survive
Effects not yet known
 
Covid-19
AKA Grim Reaper  
Does not respect  
Persons of any age
Of any financial status
Even those
Covered in blood of Jesus
No prayer rug
In the world
Can save you
Nor any rung of any
Societal  scale
Money can buy
Isolation habitat  
Offering a wall
For protection
New world order
At hand...
Balked preparing
For such a future
Never thought
It would be so soon
Work, school
Religious groups
Every aspect
Of our existence  
Change is in infancy
Buildings of all sorts
Standing empty
As transitional  
Methods project
And mold future  
Of our world.
