A Dream Too Close To Home
There is a spy among us.
Just waiting to do you in.
It is definitely in no rush.
In the end, it will win.
This spy is around you.
It is on all that you touch.
It has definitely found you.
It does not need a crutch.
It can easily be activated.
Do it’s dirty work full time.
Do not become fascinated.
It can destroy your mind.
Little is known about it now.
But, that will change soon.
Once active, it could kill a cow.
Kill all this side of the moon.
A pandemic like never known.
Killing all in a few days.
The seeds have been sown.
I wish it ended some other way.
Man is responsible for this spy.
Accidently released upon us all.
It is much more than the evil eye.
It is time to heed your beaconed call.
There is nothing that can be done.
There is no way to save your skin.
There is no where you can run.
There is no way that we can win.
What a nightmare, holy cow!!
No more pizza late at night.
I’ve become germaphobic now.
Thanks to that dream. What a fright.
