“Alien Offerings” © Jury S. Judge
a world gone viral
the virus came, it took
in its wake came peace
the sudden apprehension
gobbled up your greed
gave you a deserved fit
this glorious antivirus of earth
every harsh, gentle, cruel, kind
submit to its deadly mirth
everyone is alike
only as the gravedigger goes
but, alas, in nature’s eyes
there’s no divide
every who’s who
every who nobody knew
are lined-up dominoes
