He discovered the corpse and died inside
A lawman protects but not this time
Cold stench splits his sleep
Clogs his mind
Comes close to ending him
When the new plague came he smiled
Let it rip, he said
Cull the herd
I ask why
His smile sharpens
He’s sure this virus is God’s will
Will rid the world of useless old
Clear cut the ill
He’s fine with millions dead
But could not live with one
How many more like him?
