The Origin of Covid

the egghead scientists,
bored
with their
day to day experiments
on mice and men,
decide to create
a new
disease to study
and infect the world with.
let's make
it complicated like
a Rubik's cube
needing a brand
new vaccine, to curb
its symptoms,
can i get
a cha ching
and an amen?
we're tired of measles
and cancer,
the common flu.
scabies, pffft.
we need a new exotic
disease 
to play around with.
someone get out the Bunsen
burner and the test tubes.
it's against the law to do it
here, in the states,
so someone get Amy Tan
on the phone
at the secret lab
in Wuhan.
