Fetus, transgender, diversity,
science based, evidence based...
there! I’ve had the temerity,
the almighty gall and audacity
to quote all seven words in poetry

while Centre for Disease Control
has orders to cease and desist
ensuring that there is zero focus
on those seven controversial words

how a thinking populace
can stand by in silent witness
to what seems like a total circus
run by a crazed orangeutan

is something the world beyond
struggles to comprehend.

meantime, my dear friends,
you’re all quite welcome
to escape from the tent
and flee to Hong Kong...
