I love the way you think and especially the way you use words. As Tereza said, another masterpiece.

An epic to pass down to the next epoch... will they be singing this in time for the 2120 "pandemic", when living memory has faded?

Because I don't know any warning ballads from the 1918 Spanish Flu. Wish I did, though. Wish the kids were singing it to each other on the playgrounds, like Ring Around the Rosie.

Well, wow. That's a beauty!

I wonder... maybe Visceral Adventure - do you know her stack? - she sometimes put poems (not only her own) to music and imagery, she's quite amazing at it. I could see a collaboration. :-) Just a thought.

Love it! (And so many other lines) Thank you.

Great stuff, well done. There are a lot of reason to Beware the Ides of March, including medics.

Clad in invisible robes

Mightier than any monument, but meek unto the microbe"
