A Deadly Fucking Virus is Abroad! (a sonnet)

A deadly fucking virus is abroad!

It came across the air. Across the sea.

It’s spreading uncontrolled through guys like Todd

Who will not wear a mask—he says he’s free!

But freedom’s an illusion. (news to Todd!)

And none of us are ever truly free.

Freedom is an effort to defraud

The working class in this community.

But Todd is talking privilege—not of rights. 

Perception of a right he doesn’t have.

Hypocrisy ascended to new heights.

A comely clerk at Kroger feels his wrath.

Then Todd, he ran for governor and won!

Just look at all the damage he has done!
