Sense Sonnet - Chiller

Dis Ease

Long time diseases like TB
Thought to be no risk in my world,
Are making a comeback slowly,
In new strains with unknowns unfurled.
According to the news reports,
Some infected people to date
Make public minglings of all sorts,
Caring or knowing not what fate
Might befall them or those they meet.
Unless I choose self quarantine,
Contagion could have that next seat.
There are no signs, "This one is clean."

Some do and others do not ask,
"What's the deal with you and that mask?"
