It Is Corona

mahnaz Badihian

Corona Came,

crueler than criminals

more robust than a cannon and a gun

more significant than the world economy

and redder than Stalin’s Guards

Corona comes to teach us lessons

more important than

the experiences of Rumi

bigger than Plato,s advice

Corona scared us away to hide

in the holes of our houses all alone

we felt more hungry than

people in hungry lands

rushed to fill our boxes

with bread and cheese

fill our bowls with food and seeds

attack the shops filled with

fear and despair

Corona comes

to empty the streets

and hide our money under

the fear of death

Corona comes

with hands that do not

differentiate between black and white

poor and rich

powerful and powerless

Came to relive the suffocated breath of nature

to calm the wounded plains

to revive the sick nature from pollution

Corona comes

to give the inhabitants of the world relief

from greed

Corona had come to strip us naked

of pride and prejudice

corona was more significant

than all of us and so small

that wasn’t visible

and so big that every day

carried hundreds of people with him

to bury them in a mass graves

STAY POSITIVE, IT’S CORONA TIME !
Some things have to end for new ones to start, don’t stress over things today that won’t have any significance tomorrow. It’s not the end of your life, it’s just an end of a chapter.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sometimes people can get overwhelmed or caught by something small, something insignificant and forget what’s important, forget about real things they need to take care of, such as their family, work or their passion.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Remember, if something happens today, by tomorrow, or even a couple of day’s from now, you have probably forgotten about it because there are simply more important things to think about. Focus on them and don’t forget to take care of yourself and the others around you. Stay safe.
