Of Souls and Asouls

Callooh, callay! Just yesterday,

I asked, “Of U.S. souls erased

by rogue corona, what’s the toll…?”

     “One hundred fifty thousand lay

defunct,” said they. “Nor none replaced --

all down to one who lacks a soul.”

      (The prefix 'a-' -- as “ah-h-h...” pronounced --

denotes, on English tongues, ‘without,’

nor known be aught to contravene.

     T’will do for him herein denounced.

‘Tis Drumpf! Of that there dwells no doubt.

‘Tis Drumpf the Asoul whom they mean.)
