Germs In The Mix
As if the threat of World War 3
wasn’t quite enough,
there’s a new string to it,
that really is so tough.
For not only is there nuclear threat
in the shape of those big bombs,
but germ warfare is now in the mix
threatened with some maniac’s aplomb.
There’s talk of bringing back the plague,
or anthrax with it’s holes,
botulism’s mentioned
as part of this germ warfare’s goals.
Maybe it’s scaremongering,
some news that’s really fake;
a media dreamt up story
is what I hope for the world’s sake.

I just can't help worrying that there maybe at least some truth to the story....perhaps they'll unleash the common cold!
