Your attention, please

The country is in a state of

Red alert.

Do not leave your homes.

Do not open your door to anyone:

Friend or foe.

Do not drink tap water.

If you must, use your water

Cleanser, and drink with care.

Do not use any electronic equipment,

Turn off your TV's, your mobiles,

Contact no one.

Anyone who does not follow

These guidelines is already

Forsaken.

You can do nothing more for

Them. Do not try.

Do not grieve for those

Who are lost.

We can do nothing

For them now. Pray

for their souls,

‘We live together,

Must die alone.'

~*~

Very well done. A bit confusing the way it jumps lines when still the same sentence, but I guess that poetry. A very 'to the point' poem, but an enjoyable read.
