22 Days in April
On twenty two consecutive days
in April 2020
over 1,000 people diedÂ
of Covid-19
in my country
though Ministers daily
downplayed this abomination
with figures of three digits
my country
in need of care
though you wouldn't know it
from the way it is treated
by its careless rulers
those leaders that morph into
cheap game show hosts
Brylcreemed
three digits
knowing winksÂ
and prizes you can't use
my country
a bump on the earth
a thing of beauty
radiating from the smiles
that come gladly to the faces
of the low paid and short changed
I applaud them
I applaud anyone
who has not swallowed
the lies attached to the events
of these rariefied days
as the undertakers work overtime
and the monumental masons
inscribe new stanzas
on the Avenues of Tombs
"my country
a bump on the earth
a thing of beauty
radiating from the smiles
that come gladly to the faces
of the low paid and short changed"
Bullseye!
