“You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time”.

This vaccination for Covid 19,
What does it do to you, what does it mean?
Is it, in fact, a strain of the truth drug?
Does it presage a permanent youth drug?
Can it mess with your head, posing the risk,
Of having your brain cells copied to disc?
Conspiracy theorists, who’ve had their say,
Claim that the vaccine corrupts DNA
And, in the hands of government backers,
Activates use of microchip trackers.
Loads of conflicting perspectives abound,
But I’m with the experts whose knowledge is sound,
Their vaccine’s brought hope to a discomposed nation,
Now, they’re battling to counter virus mutation,
It’s a no brainer, the answer is plain,
Weigh up the risks and consider the gain.
From reports on the vaccine, it can be adduced
That the virus’s potency’s vastly reduced.
And so, ‘carpe diem’ don’t hesitate,
Go get your vaccine before it’s too late.
