Current Pandemonium NEOS YOU ARE MISSNG SOMETHINGS

It isn't the first
nor is it the last
all past humans have suffered
Emperor of Rome who died in 180 AD
of small pox virus
left his style of Model
mostly one of
Meditation
as only over mind
one has if at all any control

Fear -stress- anxiety and inquisitiveness
are more severe than knowing the ultimate end

we were born and brought into life
with a certain promise of death
as a an inevitable accompaniment

then those who lapsed with time
spoke of self analysis and meditation

today's poets
mostly are relying
on unknown gods and prayer
where lies no answer
of whimsical imagination

try and be pragmatic
face all eventuality
and real possibility

follow the modern drills
cut off all untoward frills
social distancing- no kissing- no hugging
wait for that vaccination
still scientists are working
just learnt it's soonly coming

have patience
If we pass away
there is going to be nothing strange
so why our minds unduly
must we derange

yet worse of all -untimely
where's your mask-
O unmindful friend
keep your inflated
ego
at the further most end
