Variant D by Chris Sorrenti
All the way from Injah
as the British used to say
and you can bet it didn’t walk here
they themselves
forced to postpone full opening
because of this same bug
the latest mutation
adaptation
improvement in the species
as the world races to stay ahead of it
with increasing needles to arms
The letter D
fourth in the alphabet
think about it
just hope it isn’t a harbinger
for the fourth wave
