The Earth is Blooming

©April 2nd 2020, Olan L. Smith

Wake up people. There is no us versus them, no tribes, no countries, no colors,

It is just us versus the SARS CoV-2 virus. So, leave your shit behind you, and march to

Another drummer, we are at war. This virus is blooming all over this earth, it

Incubates in humans and ripens leaving death in its wake. It has no tears for us,

It only knows how to propagate, and now that it is aerosolized, there really isn't a way

To stop it, so sequester, hide, protect yourself from being the next person it finds

As a good host. We need to stand strong, united, or watch our nations fall apart.

In an economic crisis the likes we have never seen before.

97 to 98 percent or more will recover, but that's not the point. Think of the

Hospital system as a river; everything is fine, but we get a storm of COVID 19

Patients, but the banks are already at flood stage with a bad flu season, so

It's out of its banks already. The flood will recede, but not before it does its

Damage to the hospital system. Also, we've only so many levees strong

Enough to save us. The levees are our doctors and nurses fighting the flood,

Laying down sandbags, but they can't keep up with the COVID-19 rainfall.

They need tools to help them, backhoes (representing ventilators), but we

Don't have enough. Not nearly enough, because we used them all up fight,

The huge flu deluge. Now, all we can do is let the river do its damage and pray.

This flood is like Noah's flood, and it is known worldwide. The survivors are expected.

The stress on the levees is not; this flood will drown many people, but it

Will go away if it doesn't rain COVID-19 in the fall, and we all know firsthand

What two seasons of successive floods will do.

God help us all if our infrastructure is destroyed.
