In The Midst of The Plague

By Mutiu Olawuyi

Stay home not with fams Cleanse not your palms Dash no space Be deaf… – Death! Death claims dirty wayward haughty minds Who snub hailing signs -- East beast feasts uncleanst wrists… This wave knows no chest; crashes East and West; surpasses all pills; disgraces bills… – Spate! Spate schools mates: Love hoards souls averts weird death tolls; ties humans to shame woes!
