Faith to Death's Doorstep


 

Infused with the ecstasy of their faith

they see no need for the exercise of caution

for the sublime eye of God is upon them

and will not tolerate harm to assault

those whose trust in the guidance of faith

and unquestioning surrender to destiny

ordained through worship rewarding them

in this life, a mere preliminary to a more

lasting state in the hereafter, needs no cure. 

So not for them precautions ordered by the 

authority of government agency and their 

minions purporting concern over the death rate

citizens succumbing to the morbid assault

of a pathogen so deadly it has swept the globe

and sweeps it again gathering impetus and

a never-ending death toll. For if God wishes

them to return to his heavenly house they are

in complete and everlastingly faithful accord.
