a wave of omicron
pandemic is upon us
challenging the immunity
levels of millions
yet, instead of fighting
the deadly bugs
with all your might and power
you spend your precious time
bending reality over the crescent moon
burning through endless memories of past love
and thinking of the glamour and passion
of the Eve that time forgot
you cry over spilled milk
like a child possessed
under the rising sun
