2020

The Reaper

2020

You started a disaster 
Wiggling your evil tail in anticipation 
Enjoying the devastation 

Began by tossing the happiness of the new year 
Deep in the dirtiest dustbin 
Taking 
Reaping
Every thing 
Sparing nothing 

You respected Noone 
Young and old fall victim 
You cared for nobody 
You took their jobs
Threatened their health
You shook their perception 
Frightened their future 
You spook everything 
Shortened all dreams

You toyed with hope 
Thinking you'd leave 
Let us be, we believe 
No, you bounced back 
In a new style (strain) 
Hoping to cut more life short 
Hoping to knock the merry out of Christmas. 

Well we'll push
Through all the darkness 
Push
Still the end of the December
Push
Driving our heels into your skull 
Push
Into a new happier year 
Pushing 
To the very end of your madness @*¢®  ¥*§ 2020

The disaster started possibly as early as September 2019. And virus isn't the enemy #1 but some nasty human! Wish you have a peaceful holiday.

A whole of evil went on this year which exposed a whole bunch of evil that still exists in the hearts of humans...hopefully we have learnt one or more thing. Thanks for stopping by Yi. Merry Christmas. Warm regards.
