TO CORONA

TO CORONA

O Corona! The most intricate and unintelligible Googly of Nature,
You have befooled and clean bowled the most defensive batsman on Earth!
Alas! He is sent to the pavilion for a duck, with no scope to appeal for a Review with an expectant mirth,
Lest he should be spared from losing his vital wicket to save his self-respect, and no more to augment his torture!

O Corona! The Nature's wildest, most lethal and most enigmatic Beast of prey,
You have fused the shrewdest brains, blunted the sharpest blades and diffused the deadliest bombs with your eeriest stay!
You have hushed the world, gagged the rash tongues, fearless hands, and ceased the fastest wheels,
You have rolled the ever active,  defiant, indecent and undisciplined lives to unprecedented, shocking stand stills!

O Corona! The sternest and the most heartless Chastiser deployed by the Nature,
Don't misuse Your Veto power like an unruly and unrelenting Arbitrator any longer;
Else, Your pernicious pride and calumnious arrogance of prevailing a universal anarchy shall soon end like a reverie,
For, She stealthily digs the tomb timely, justly and unbiasedly for every illegitimate Dictator's obituary!
