Death Pyramids

This is not a pyramid scheme Death has planted its seed in our midst It is invading our family trees Ransacking our profiles Searching for victims to devour Disemboweling our innermost emotions Death is building a pyramid of sorrow With our flesh and blood It's the darkest monument In the history of humankind The darkest moment stands erect Under the shadow of the death pyramids This is the hour of despair But we shall disregard the orders To bow down inside the temple of death We shall bury our dead and mourn in silence We shall resist the temptation To surrender and lie down Inside the casket of sorrow We shall make a break through And deconstruct the death curve We will destroy every vesicle That nurtures the seed of death This won't be easy It is a task for each and every one of us It starts now...let's vaccinate the world And permanently destroy the pyramids of death That keeps growing with every wave The third wave of Covid-19 disease can be our last episode of the death pyramids Only if we stand together ©Kenneth Maswabi
