Monkeypox is climbing
the branches of significance
we apparently gave it life
by getting rid of Smallpox
tell that one to Darwin
Is this the next pandemic?
another round of vaccines?
another bolt of polarization?
another chance to fight science?
And oh did you hear
it started up in Africa
Stock up on thick skin Black folks
The insults will be intense.
