This is a crazy time in
This world right now.
A virus we can’t see has
Shut down the world.
All sports are cancelled.
They moved the summer Olympics.
Everything non-essential is closed.
The only thing open is grocery
Stores and convenience stores.
Restaurants are take-out
Or drive through only.
Health care workers
Are on the front lines.
They are getting sick
And dying to help save people.
Families are in weird living
Arrangements because they are
Trying to save their family.
Who know a virus that started
In China could spread
Around the World and
Kill hundreds of thousands
Of people so far.
Most states have a shelter
In place orders.
Which means you are not suppose
To go out unless its to
The grocery store or to
Walk or if you have an emergency
Nobody knows how long this
Will last.
This is our 2020 so far.

Disarmament
They say there's no atheism in the foxhole. While I wasn't currently neck-deep in a river of soft sediment, I was still praying to whoever would listen. Why am I doing this again? I would ponder while staring at the device that in no less than a minute could be my undoing. I scanned each and every variable panel and commonplace button as I watched the bright red L.E.D ticker countdown. No wires to cut, no code to put in, there was only one way to stop this infernal machine, and that incurred perfect timing.
