Dead Puppies

On a break from the propaganda mill
I found puppies I thought I could kill,
So I shot them with zombie-rich juice—
I am Fauci, I need no excuse.

I just couldn’t believe how they screech,
So I cut all their cords that make speech
And returned to my silent research,
In an atmosphere just like a church.

Count the bodies and do your own math,
I’m a white-coated smug psychopath
And responded to my nation’s call,
I’m the Vaccine Man loved by you all.

On to children now twelve down to five—
All the twenty-four million—still alive!

    Wowzer! As an NYC resident, maybe you can whip up something about city workers defying the jab mandate? I understand the garbage is piling up too. Have at it, Joe! You’re on a roll!

    “To me, it’s unconscionable that a society uses its children as shields for adults. Children do not have a significant risk from this illness… Are we [as] a society, a civilization… going to inject our children with an experimental drug that they don’t have a significant benefit from, to shield ourselves?”
    —Dr. Scott Atlas

    Who are we? Aren’t we better than this?

      Mike —
      That’s a question I’ve been asking myself for some time.
      For me, it started with the arts. In painting I saw people restricting themselves and their ideas in order to “fit in.” In poetry, the work of formalist students seemed so much better than free versers. Why? Soon everything began to stem from avarice, greed and self-interest. Religion declined.
      Now I know the individual is where you will find decency, and that is where I look for it.
      Thanks, Mike, for speaking out on the decline of just about everything !

    Alarm bells go off whenever anyone dares to speak the truth. Keep them ringing, Joe!

    Joe, you pipped me to the post with this poem and I applaud you for keeping truth to the fore with your chilling and hard-hitting words. What sort of evil person could do this? “a white-coated smug psychopath” that’s who! Let’s hope the plight of those poor puppies will open a few eyes… the content of the experimental jabs and the VAERS report certainly haven’t.

      I told Mike that your last posting seemed to me to go beyond writing – it’s as if you’ve been given the ability to breathe life into your work.
      I wrote a short one a while ago that comes to mind:

      The Coarsest Thread

      We are indeed a tapestry,
      All woven by the Hand Divine.
      These brilliant threads right next to me,
      My job it is to make them shine.

        Joe, thank you for your beautiful words, and I love the sentiment of your poem. From its humbling title to its shining closing line, it sings to me. I feel exactly the same! Keep those threads shining, Joe… and keep bringing us (your ever-grateful readers) the truth in poetry that I’m certain makes a difference!

    Thanks Joe for writing this hard-hitting poem. I hadn’t read the gruesome
    research details, and found it particularly sick that vocal cordectomies were
    performed, not to mention all the other procedures overseen by Fauci.

    There were needless cruel painful “experiments” performed on children by the Nazis not so long ago. And for years, in this country we have alklowed awful things to be done to small helpless animals.so we can have “safer” makeup for vain women. So it is nothing new here.
    Awful.
    Joe, don’t let those lovely beagles be forgotten. They gave their lives to wake us up!

    Joe – I hesitated to respond to your poem until I had read the remarks of others because I know little of Fauci and next to nothing of his nefarious activities. Thank you for drawing this horror, perpetrated in the name of science, to my attention in such a hard-hitting fashion. The photograph of those two beagle corpses will stay in my mind for a very long time to come.
