I am scared
Of that new virus
Because when the pundits say
Don’t worry, it’s only killing old people
And sick people
Well, guess who they are talking about.
I am the perfect demographic for death
As a consequence
I am stocking up on emergency rations
Water bottles
And prescription medicine
So I don’t have to leave the house
Which will be my bulwark against disease
Forget going to the gym
Nix on the supermarket
I will wallow in solitude until death passes me by.
Famous last words.
