Pandemic Equality

A ruthless killer

Far-reaching as the sun

Rides upon the wind

Partial to none.

 

There's no distinction 

Between great and small 

Minion and lord

Together they fall.

 

A time for reflection 

-though terror is rife 

Men are equal in death

Why not in life?

A well composed poem. The question posed in the final stanza sends out a message loud and clear to those who discriminate and display prejudice.

Thank you for this

Keith
