Who’dve thought civilized nations would be told to wash hands and cover when they cough ?
Who’dve thought that nations would succumb and leaders breakdown as the juggernaut came ?
Who’dve thought it would come upon us when we where busy ironing out tirival creases of our differences ?
Who’dve thought that next big war would be fought between Humans & Viruses ?
Who’dve thought that the only religion that mattered is whether one’s human or not ?
Who’dve thought that the only politics that mattered is whether one’s sick or not ?
Who’dve thought the only accolade, only badge that mattered is whether we are alive or not ?
Who’dve thought that doctors will be frontline, and soldiers would do rear guard ?
Who’dve thought that cannons will be silent and syringe will hold the key ?
Who’dve thought that brute force and politics would bow down before knowledge and selflessness ?
Really, Who’dve thought ?
