“Reassess” ... A Poem written by Big Virge 9/8/2020


Well I Guess It’s Time For Heads To Now... “ REASSESS”... What Will Serve Them Best Now Corona Has Sent... A WHOLE NEW NORMAL Into Human Portals... !?!?! of... Future Existence Where ALL These PM’s And PRESIDENTS... Set PRECEDENTS That Create D I S T A N C E... That Will Make Humans Defend Against Corona’s Spread... !!! So As Jobs GO Reassessments Now Roll... !!! WITHOUT Drums In Tow Because For Now There Are NO SHOWS... !!! Well UNLESS They're From Homes Because of Futures UNKNOWN... ?!? EXCEPT... Technology’s GROWTH... But Loss of Hope Is ALARMINGLY CLOSE To LOTS of FOLKS... !!! Who’ve Had ENOUGH of Being BROKE And Being Told To STAY HOME... !!! When Those In The KNOW Will Make You Reassess Talk From GOVERNMENTS... !!! When Hospital Zones Might As Well of Been Closed... ?!? Because There WEREN’T Droves Or A Constant Flow of SICKLY Folks...?!? And That’s NO JOKE Or... Conspiracy Quote... !!! Believe It If You Like Or If You Choose To DON’T... !!! But Here’s A Line To Reassess Rocked Boats... !!! How Many Do You KNOW Who’ve Died From This FOE... !?! THINK About Your Response Cos' It MIGHT BELONG In A World of NONSENSE... !!! Now I May Be Wrong But My Logic Is STRONG... !!! Reassessments Now As Well As DOUBT... !!! Are Now Floating Around In The Hearts of Mouths... of... Young And Old Who Now DON’T KNOW Which Way To Go... !?!?! And NO I’m Not Talking of... New Gender Folk... !!!!! Who’ve Made A Lot Of Heads Have To... REASSESS... What They Choose To Express When Speaking On Them... !!! Because They Have A PROBLEM With Being Treated Like The Rest... ?!? Yes I Mean HUMANS Who Have To Hear Things Said EVERY Day That OFFEND... !!! From Various Heads Whether White Or Black Child Woman Or Man... !!!!! And THOSE WORDS THERE Are Words of... FACT... !!! They’ve NEVER REASSESSED THAT... !!! How Racism Hurts Blacks Until We’re On Our Backs Lying DEAD And Flat... !!! It’s Incredible To See These Reassessments Be Causing Protest Scenes... In The Midst of Seeing A DEADLY Global Disease... !!! NOT My Words Folks I’m Just ASSESSING The Quotes That Are NO JOKE... !!! When It Comes To Deaths And New Future Trends... !!! From Tech On The Web To Drones In The Air... To... How New Genders Are Filling Up Blenders... !!! And Of Course WE CAN’T FORGET The CORONA Effect... !!! That’s Causing REAL STRESS To A Lot of HEADS... !!! Who Seem To Be THE POOREST... !!! I Guess It’s Me And WILD CONSPIRACIES... ?!? But When You REALLY CHECK... And REALLY USE YOUR HEAD.... !!! And Then Apply BASIC Common Sense... !!! There’s A Lot Out There That Now Doesn’t Make Sense... ?!? So My Word To The WISE Is... SIMPLY... ........... “ REASSESS “.........
