Disaster
The virus to spreading
Out of control.
There is no antidote,
No vaccine.
It kills everything in its path.
Never has such
A virulent strain
Mutated into existence;
So lethal,
So deadly,
So destructive to everything.
Never has a virus
Threatened so many
Forcing extinctions
Threatening
To end
All life on the planet.
It is us.
It is us.

Life is tenuous and fragile.
It came into being just once.
It took billions of years to mutate into the wondrous myriad of forms we now have.
It has suffered 5 mass extinction events that threatened to wipe out all life on this planet. Usually as a result of an asteroid. A catastrophe.
We are the sixth.
