Then ask and shh

Say one thing about night say it seems absolutely innocuous, like it doesn't know there's a virus floating around!
I hear birds, chirps of nighttime critters, an odd toad because it rained a lot and I think of my wheat fields that are in their ripening season, that don't need rains, that need to be cut now and I can't visit because there's a lockdown .

Inevitable as it is, life is such and I dislike it at the moment but then there are billions like me, at home, upset and thousands who are in transit, stuck in the middle of two countries, two cities, two states.
I feel sad for them and those who are now homeless stuck in a lockdown, trying to cross borders on foot and with no food to eat, with little prospects of a good life.
What is a coronavirus to them?
