Covid train:

London 2021.

By Leonara Hansen Published 4 years ago 1 min read

Rickety rickety rack crack as the train departs,

Hot air flares and scares all, intermingling, dispersing, diffusing, dangerous ,non- discriminating, depopulating.

The unmasked sit boldly with the masked, staring and daring to be told to mask up while the masked fast depart to avoid with all their heart the casket.

Covid 19, morbid 19, a die for all, culling, lulling us all into a false sense of security, taking people in all surety.

Swaying and braying, playing and toying with our emotions in its commotion, going slow motion and resulting in an explosion of chaos.

A&E filling up, as tree-like lungs lose capacity to function. Malfunction.

Rickety rickety rack crack as the train departs. London 2021 covid virus divides us.
