That virus locked
Both mind and mouth
And this virus has locked down the body too
Let me hope that
Today or tomorrow
The body will be locked out
But may I dream that?
Some day
Both Mind and Mouth
Will be locked out?

The
mother who can’t feed
Her
hungry baby
Just
prayed
'Come
Corona come, eat me'
3
Getting
ready for death
The
Training Camp
Meant
for the compulsion to live
Has
begun
At
least now
Let
us live
4
To
the living world
Which
lived without being touched
The
Last sentence
Has
been enforced.
5
Seeing
The
human corpses fall off
Like
how the insects fall away
The
humans in
The
men of worms
Woke
up at last
But
it is too late!
6
For
centuries
The
poets yearned and yearned
'Oh
my Spirit
Transcend
all boundaries’
But
no ears took them in
And
no hearts felt touched by
Now
being scared of a virus
The
world is trying to
Find
no boundaries
7
What
a disease
You
brought,
Oh
father?
The
lives
Who
crave for
Love
and care
Need
to be jailed themselves
Like
criminals?
8
For
doctors, nurses
And
civilian workers
We
paid a tribute
By
applauding for their services
They
also paid us a tribute
By
going on strike
For
not having
Gloves,
masks
And
gowns
9
Those
who applied for divorce
Locked
out themselves at home
And
became a couple again
10
People
from far off
Joined
back their houses
And
at home
Corona
has ordered
Them
to live apart
11
Around
the world
Both
the dictators
And
those who stood in protest against them
Have
now knelt down
Before
Corona
12
The
Corona virus
Is
thundering down
And
the center of the world
Is
breaking down
13
Even
while taking
Wife
and children
In
our arms
Our
hearts
Will
tremble with cold
