What Was It by A. Carol Scott

Title: “What Was It”

#ACCCPandemicArtsJournal

It wasn’t the bomb
It wasn’t the Russians
Nor Kim Jong-Un
And his missile collection.

It wasn’t aliens or UFOs
It wasn’t a massive eruption
From the volcano hidden
On a level plain in Yellowstone

It wasn’t a ten magnitude quake
It wasn’t a giant asteroid strike
Like the one that took out Fred’s
Dino and all his lizardy friends

And it wasn’t the invasion
of the body snatchers
Or a zombie apocalypse
Relentlessly marching

That captured the world forcing
everyone to wobbly knees
It wasn’t huge or strong
Like a well muscled maniac

It was just an itty bitty bug
unseen to human eyes without
a powerful magnifier to view
the murderous little monster.
