His last visit to historic Vienna’s
Town centre
With empty streets
Closed eateries and cafes
Art exhibitions closed
The buzzing atmosphere of living
Wiped out by a pandemic
Hydrogen-bomb.
Coronavirus-hysteria has gripped
Also the hamlet of Weidling
Town and country
With daily reports worldwide.
Fear of failure of one’s personal
Immunity to this spiked pin ball
Virus
Keeps people off the streets
Yet a poet is used to work in a
Solitary mode
Never bored in his creative mood
Preparing his work for publishing
In continuity-mode
His artistic calling backed by his
Muse.
Thanks for electronic means of
Communicating his ideas and
Writings to the people who’ll
Distribute it to the world.
